I was quite pleased with the late Van front pads Ron sells, these are some
bizzare Australian brand never seen em before, but are very nicely made, not
a nice as OEM, but much nicer than cheap parts store pads in appearance.
They have been quiet, stopped well, and are about as dusty as OEM.  I have
no idea how they will wear, or wear rotors at this point.  For $16 or
whatever he wants, go for them, if you don't like, you are out damn near
nothing.
