No R-comps. I run Max performance street tires. I am not looking to gain stopping power, I am looking to not over heat the pads. The XP12's are good up to 2000 degrees, same as the PFC01's I had to use on my STi to keep from over heating on tracks. The XP10's are good to 1650 degrees. Now the 370Z's rotors are much bigger than the STi's and the cars weigh about the same, so my thinking is I wont need a pad rated at such a high temp with the Z, which is why I am leaning towards the XP10's.
