Upside : very little dust

Downside : they only work about as well as a "stockish" type pad. Not as well as a good aftermarket pad (i.e. Perf Friction, Hawk HPS or HP+, Axxis Ultimate, etc etc).

speaking of brake pads, what do you guys think of the Endless SSS pad? I'm thinking about getting that.
