My dilemma as well. I live on a mountain, push myself and still don't cook the brakes. It took me 12 years to use up the stock pads on my 300ZXtt. Tires are pretty much an annual event. I did get 7250 miles out of the long wearing Potenzas.
If I were to auto cross I can not imagine using them long enough between sets to lose them either. Maybe I'm wrong.
