Stay away from Bendix.... unless you like changing your rotars lots. For a good mix of Road and track the The Ferodo DS2000-DS2500 are a good choice and not to expensive either....

Ok in real life terms, how hard are the full on pads going to chew my rotors?

Its obvious they will as you all allude to it, but are we talking 5000km, 10000km ?

Ahhh, id like to nkow how you guys are chewing rotors with ultimate's, i belted the absolute crap out of mine, and they diodn't chew them at all, they just ended up cracking due to age and abuse...

ultimates are not a carbon/carbon metallic style pad like alot of the DS range of stuff, which with regurally street driving DESTROY rotors before you can say "damn that was expensive"

ultimates for the win, they work very very well, for the money..

other pads which are more metalic based work even better, but eat rotors, ultimates don't..
