Do you have the ones with 4mm longer spindles?
PD trumps the SPD

For the last couple years I stuck with the Shimano SPD pedals that came with my German road bike. I feel like a moron for not changing these out earlier. The R8000's transfer the power much better with the larger base. It also makes for a much more comfortable ride. You can change the tension of how tight you want to be locked in as well. I've purchased these pedals for my trainer bike and road racer. Very satisfied and priced right!
Nice upgrade
I was riding an older set of 105 pedals, these pedals are much lighter. The platform is nice and wide, the cleats are durable, and the price was great.
Excellent

Noticeably lighter, it's a tight pedal

I hope this loosens up with time, it's REALLY tight clipping in and out right now though! I love how light it is, it's nearly as light as Shimano's most expensive pedal but much cheaper. It feels like a really good-quality pedal.
Should have done it sooner

Usual Ultegra quality. That is, about the same as DA but a trifle heavier. The only surprise was that I hadn't realized how worn the old set was until I put on the new and every thing was nice and tight smooth.
You should be able to adjust the entry and release tension. It's usually an easy adjustment with a small hex wrench.
