I guess doesn't really help in doogyrevs case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your playing with fire wear oven gloves.

I dont think they take away from the performance of the car at all and definitely enhance the brakes over standard pads, stopping power is very good with these pads and there are a lot of happy yellowstuff users on this forum so I wouldnt class it as scrimping at all, they do work and they do stop you well....
