Feedback: After following bedding instructions, pads do screech/ squeal at low speeds when cold. However when warmed up they have good bite, little to no noise, and holds up well on the track.
Scores:
Dusting (1=high-10=low): 2
Cold bite (1=low-10=high): 4
Hot bite (1=low-10=high): 8
Modulation (1=low-10=high): 9
Noise (1=extremely loud-10=quiet): 4
Pad Lifespan (1=short-10=long): 1 HPDE, 2 AutoX and counting.
Does the brake dust with this combination damage the wheels/paint if not cleaned immediately? No
Brake ducts: No

I just finished my first HPDE event with the XP10s front and rear on a GR86 with stock everything except wheels/tires (245/40/17 RS4s). Horrible experience. Nothing about the XP10s felt good on track. They felt mushy after 2-3 laps. Significant fading after 4-5 laps. Money wasted. I’m glad to hear they worked fine for someone else, but I expected better performance for the price.
