Stay of the Performance Friction Carbon Metallic Compound 97. I've these on for about 6 months now. These pads are a total nightmare far as dust level is concerned. Way more dust compared to stock and the worst is, they 'eat' into your wheels and your wheel arch paint work!! I intend to swap them out for the Porterfield R4S.
The Compound 97 are track pads but surprisingly, they work very well from cold. It felt much better than the stock pads. So they're totally usable on the street and is just the dust level that's the problem. Contrary to what some may say, they're very gentle on the rotors. If they emitted less dust, they would be ideal for the streets.
Now, can someone tell me where I can get some mail order Porterfield R4S? I've tried rennstore.com but they almost insisted that I get the front/back instead of just the front. Don't get me wrong, they sounded rather nice and all just that they were a bit too pushy on me getting the entire set.
