Brake pad life?

import111 · 04-23-2011, 06:23 PM

22k on my stock pads and they still have 1/2 life left. My track pads are more than 1/2 gone and have about 11 20 min. sessions on them.

At 7k I immediately swapped to Stillen Metal Matrix. My reason was just not performance but I hate, I repeat, I HATE brake dust. I'll be upgrading to Hawk HPS soon. Oh and stock brakepad will die with my drilled and slotted rotors.

I agree with the previous post, the stock just are not up to the tasks, esp. on hard braking.
