Pep Boys Ceramics

Just bought new front rotors and PepBoys best pads for my '02 Flareside. Anyone have any experience with them? Will be installing in a few days. Bought the middle of the road pad for the rears, any tips on loosening the p-brake?

Thanks for the help

Did mine last weekend, not too bad. I just wacked the rear rotors with a 3 lb. sledge and a block of wood (hit the thick part of the hub, not the rotor surface) and they broke loose from the parking brake shoes. Becarefull with the metal springs on the brake pads when putting them on the calipers. I managed to pinch my finger on the spring and ended up with the whole caliper assembly dangling from the skin on my finger, that didn't feel too good.
