Subject:Porterfield R4-S Rear Brake Shoes

Hi all.

For various reasons, am considering upgrading rear brakes to these:

If anyone is running these, did you find a marked increase in braking
performance?

I'll email porterfield but does anyone know it the lining on these is
as thick as the OEM dealership shoes?

Thanks

Neil.
