Several questions:
1) Should I even bother with the DS2500s? It seems they're too noisy for DD and not enough for track use.
2) Is there any problem with using Carbotech XP10 front and Cobalt XR2 rear? The XP10 compound is a little less aggressive than the XR2s, but I'd rather not have to purchase new rear pads when I have tons of life left on the Cobalts.

Thanks!
You'll have a slight rear bias with the XP10/XR2 rear. Are you pedal dancing?

That's the closest combo, but ideally you want front and rear pads to be the same. Did you purchase brzaapi's kit?
