If you're switching to R-compund tires, you should get track pads... I used to fade my HC+800 on street tires... You can run hybrid pads in the rear and just switch the front pads... Switching all four tires and the front pads takes less than an hour using a jack and impact gun

I ran PMU club racers on the track this year and daily drive on stop tech pads, never replaced or cleaned my rotors when I swapped pads.
