2014 Infiniti Q50S
Quick Summary, for those who prefer not to read novellas:DO I RECOMMEND THEM? ABSOLUTELYPROS:1. These pads are QUIET, as advertised. No more horrendous low speed squealing.2. Came with new hardware (retention clip, retention pins, cotter pins).3. Easy to install, direct OE replacement (on my car, at least).4. Claim not to need a bed-in procedure to be performed (I did it anyway)CONS:1. The are a little pricey.2. Not as aggressive as the OE pads.THE REST OF THE STORY: I bought both the front and the rear pads for my 2014 Infiniti Q50S, so this review will be on both. My car was purchased used about 4 months ago and the brakes started squealing like banshees right after I bought it. It was the low speed squeal that occurs when you back out of the garage or come to a stop in a parking lot. The really embarrassing kind that shouldn't be coming from a luxury sport sedan. I complained to the dealer (an Infiniti dealer, btw) and they noted that the pads had been replaced before I bought it and were brand new. Ok, so you didn't bed them properly and now its up to me to fix the problem.Fast forward to now. I ordered these pads because they had good reviews (elsewhere, obviously), and they promised to be super quiet. They got here in the typical rapid Amazon fashion (props to Amazon shipping as always). There was nothing special about the boxes they came in. Everything was there that was supposed to be there, the pads were shrink-wrapped together, all hardware sealed in a baggy. Now the moment of truth. I started with the front pads because why not. The nice thing about the Sport model brakes (I don't know about the standard brakes) is that you don't have to remove or swing out the caliper to change the pads. Pluck out the cotter pins, pull out the retaining pins, remove the old pads, and you're good to go. Same with the rear, only the pads are a little smaller. I was very happy that these pads came with the hardware (retention clip, pins, cotter pins) as my OE pins were very gunky and corroded and hard to remove (yeah, the dealer didn't bother replacing those when they put in the new pads previously, thanks again). The procedure for both axles went perfectly and everything fit as expected.After putting everything back together I went out to do my own version of a bed-in procedure (there were no included instructions, but another selling point for these pads is that they are pre-scorched and supposedly don't require bedding). While they don't provide the same aggressive bite as the semi-metallic OE pads did, they are more than adequate for daily driver use, almost as important (to me, at least), they are blissfully quiet.To address the two negative reviews:1.) All four pairs of pads I received and installed fit perfectly. Yes they were a little snug and had to be worked into place but I didn't expect them to just freely drop in. The only thing that was different from the OE setup was the retention pins that came with the rear pads. They were longer than the original ones so they stick through the caliper a bit but that in no way affects the fit or function. Maybe you received the wrong parts? Did you take it up with Amazon or the manufacturer before posting a negative review?2.) Yes, only one pad on the front set and one pad on the rear set has a wear indicator, or "sensor". Yes, this is different than the OE pads but if you think about it, all four pads on the axle should wear fairly evenly so does it really matter if each caliper contains a pad with an indicator? The answer is no, as long as each axle has at least one indicator, which these pads do. So that particular negative review was unwarranted.

Less noisy than stock
These pads are noticeably quieter than stock. The best thing is that I don't get squealing noises for the first few minutes of driving after it rains or if my car has sat for awhile. Any little bit of rust on the rotors would cause lots of annoying noises with the factory pads. My only complaint it that they don't seem to grab as well, they are still more than enough to bring the car to a tire screeching halt, but they take some extra pressure to stop.

They don't fit.
I bought front and rear pads. Rears are fine, but the fronts are too thick. Pistons are fully retracted and rotors are correct thickness, and pads don't come even close to fitting. No stars.

My favorite brakes
2nd time I installed in my car, 2008 g37s with the akebono calipers. These have very little brake dust and great stopping power. These brakes have saved me multiple times in the past couple years.
