I got a set for my TR8 they worked great but had to take them off due to the
squeak.  Also got a set of their rotors but they were had so much warp I could
not use them.

  I have used them on my TR2 and there is minimal change  on the street BUT
  coming down from a 8000 foot mountain, they are invaluable. No fade and I
  was keeping up with the Iso Grifo ( though he did motor away on the
  straights) . I haven't noticed any dust but I have disc wheels , Mike
