I'm sure you're suprised at how much better they stop. I've got them myself and will suggest that you take the hub bearings off and pack the spindle with grease. These are pre lubed but the extra grease in the spindle will help keep the bearing alive. It seems that this is one of the major issues with the hubs.:)
