- initial bite is pretty strong. (For a frame of reference it bites harder than Hawk HP+ by 20% imo but is very progressive afterwards and is easy to modulate.)
Cons:
- They dust like mad
- The dust is sticky when wet and is somewhat hard to wash off
- The dust rusts in the wet
- I ate up 60% of the pad at Mission Raceway in BC Canada after 4 twenty min sessions. (Mission is known to be hard on brakes however)
- Small amounts of brake fade on lap 11 (~15 mins into the session). I was running RE71r tires so i had pretty good grip. (Tires went greasy before the brakes though.)
I probably would not buy again based on the amount of wear i saw on the fronts in a single track day at my local track.

I got 2 days at Willow Springs, 2 days at Laguna Seca and 4AC’s and 5k street miles. They were toast after that. Replaced with same. They DO dust a lot but that isn’t a concern with black wheels
