Disc Italia Titanium Kevlar Pads

Just ordered front and rear sets. Anyone have these? Anyone heard anything about them?

I have them and new PowerDisk slotted rotors, but not on the car yet. Hopefull this weekend. I saw one or two others posts that had them installed, but very recently. No one with much time on them.

Had them on Fox II for a few weeks, before it was totaled, I loved them.
They are really hard to beat & same price as Rotex Gold. SF

Re: Disc Italia Titanium Kevlar Pads

I had a full set installed about 400 miles and 2+ weeks ago. They're working fine. I gave the car a good washing this weekend with extra attention to the rims and took some "before" pictures. After a few hundred miles I should be able to tell if they are less dusty.

As far as performance, no difference between stock. The brakes on the SRT6 feel a little softer (i.e., take longer to engage) than the brakes on my roadster, but when they grab they hold.

I agree 100%... the brakes on the SRT are awesome; you just have to get into the pettle a little more than on some other cars (like my wifes Grand Cherokee).
