Well, they don't suck at being brakes for what they are designed, and that's for road use. No doubt Mov'it, AP Racing, Alcon, Brembo (real Brembos, not the 135i crap), etc. will outperform them under extreme conditions. Then again, some race brakes can be outperformed by OEM brakes in street conditions if they can't reach their ideal temperature range.
