Re: My new brakes - Galfer Extreme kit
After a week I fully tested the brakes under all conditions
Pros: - MUCH better braking power
- you can hardly push them strongly enough to fade on a road. Maybe on a track, havent tried it yet...
- very progressive
- slower start of braking with a lot of feedback when braking softly but if you press the pedal harder they bite and hold
 - discs look good

Cons: - when braking really but really softly in traffic jams, when the pads only start to touch the discs they squeal softly. Under normal braking they are quiet
- A LOT of brake dust. Silver wheels are covered with it only after 100 miles of normal driving....
- questionable wear rate... cant comment this yet but a lot of dust probably means they will wear quickly
