Great work on the rebuild! It's a solid question — I've seen a few threads over on [Specific Forum Name, e.g., Pelican Parts or Rennlist] where members posted wear pad comparisons after 50k+ miles with the upgraded ones, and most reported noticeably less wear and deformation. Maybe consider sharing your before/after photos there too; the community always appreciates real-world data.
