I've got the 6 pots on the front and they are very good. What isn't good are the pads that come with the kit, I changed mine for Pagid Blues and the braking is excellent. The discs are OK but there have been reports of cracking with high track abuse, but when the kit is half the cost of the AP's then you do get what you pay for.

the good thing is that the calipers are great and discs and pads are the same dimensions as the AP versions, so when the discs wear you can replace with AP items if you wish, also the pad shape is AP so loads of pads to choose from.

In all, good value kit
