Nice work there
How does performance (high speed/low speed) compare to the original set up?
Also, it seems from the pictures that you have new rear control arms. I wonder if you replaced those too!

That looks like the PowerStop kit that I installed from RockAuto on my PAU about 8-yrs ago! I still use/have the same rotors and have replaced the pads 3-times and still no vibration. Good job!

oh yeah I can tell a difference in them for sure right off the bat there is a very noticeable difference less pedal pressure for the same deceleration as before with old brakes and no new control arms just sprayed them when I done the calipers

It depends on the compound! Are they Carbon Fiber impregnated, or totally cermanic? I only get about 30-K on the PowerStop pads, but installed totally cermanic pads last year and we see how that goes. Looks like they are lasting longer! Same stopping power when warmed up.

Lots of "slop" in the wheel stud holes in the rotors.
