I bought metal tiles for my bathroom. I’ve installed ceramic before, but never metal. Does anyone have any tips for installing these?

The important thing is to use the appropriate adhesive, which they make specifically for metal tiles.
Here is a link I think you will find useful:

Also, do not use a wet saw for cuts. Instead use a use a 100 tooth count, circular carbide saw blade designed for cutting non-ferrous metal.
