Used 'em, they're ok

I used them and got about 40K miles on them. No road track miles, just drag and street. They're ok, but I now use Porterfield carbon-kevlar street pads, and they are much better for bite and dusting.

I run them on the street. Good autox pads. No comments on longetivity, but they work decent in racing conditions. Don't fade very fast, and they warm up quick. They don't squeal or smell either.

Have them on my Sport. The stop good even from 100+ MPH

I have only had them for a couple of months though so I can't speak about their life expectancy.

Lots of purplish dust, but they do work alot better than the stock pads or generic off the shelf auto parts store pads(don't buy those !!). I'd say they last at least 50k with normal street and spirited driving. Pretty good pads for the cost, just a little dusty if it matters to you.

yeah mine were really dusty. the bite of the pads is not as long as the pads life. noticable decline in performance even though there is a 1/3-2/3 pads left.

That kinda sounds like some other problem. I don't think the pads make-up is different past the 1/3 or 2/3 mark. Have you changed fluid lately? Or maybe a piston is sticking? Some oil on the discs?
