Many for the most part, We have been running them for a few years now and they have better braking with no brake fade, seem to run cooler, we are seeing 35,000-48,000 on the rear pads and only had to replace pads the first time. they take a little getting us to on the maintenance side but overall very easy. All the buses I order will have them. I think the rotors will be a little more expensive but again no heat cracks or issues to make me replace them the first time.
