I put the metal masters on the front of my 90-240.

Initially do about eight stops from about 30 mph, using light to moderate pressure, allowing about 30 seconds between episodes. Then avoid hard braking for about 500 miles. Allow plenty of following distance, and gradual braking. Then, go for it. They do stop the car!

Mine or all broken in now. They work very well, and without even a whisper of a squeak, or squeal.

Another thing about the metal masters: they dont give opitimum performance until there heated. kind of scary until you get used to them.
