Where did you order them? The official R1 site doesn't ship to Canada.

I bought these couple of months ago also + Hawk HPS pads, if you want cheaper price PM me, I have given one of R1 vendors many customers so he gives me a better price than R1 site and eBay.

He's good on duties also, I was only charged $21 on duties shipped to my door.

Looks good. How do they feel compared to OEM now that you have had a chance to try them out?

they're the eline series. i dont track so i didnt see the point of getting the premiums for $250 more

btw, i painted the slots and holes with black high temp paint so they look so sick against the rotor

Had a set of them, they warped and caused a nasty break pedal pulsation. I replaced them with the OEM brembos at at almost double the cost, I like the Hawk pads also.

Yes they are very big , thick and heavy, I was still able to warp them at the bottom of a mountain road in a unexpectedly deep puddle of water, avoid water when they are red hot.
