Daily drivers, do you swap street and track brake pads?

Mine barely make any noise at all on the street, and they haven't been to a track yet since I installed them.

Under very light braking there's a tiny bit of squealing, but with the windows up and music on you can't hear it. It's more frequent than the squealing I had with the OEM pads, but not louder or more annoying.

I swap pad for track and daily, just because track pad is much more expensive, so I don't wanna waste it on daily.

I have ClubRacer front and XP8 rear as long as they are in the heat range they don't make noise which is difficult to do daily driving. I don't care either way since I've gotten lazy with swapping to stock pads. People stare and its fine. I like the bite of the Race pads more than stock no matter how noisy they are.

after my last track day I left the XP8 pads in and it seemed to quiet down nicely to where I thought "oh that's pretty quiet, I will keep them on for street". Then I drove to LV for 86EXPO and they were squeaking like mad again. I drove it home afterwards and washed the car and things got quiet again. Now it seems to be pretty good, but it's almost like a split personality though. Yeah it's loud at times but if you roll up the windows you don't hear too much of it. Just feel bad for the people on the street as I roll to a stop ahaha. Funny though, in Vegas no one really noticed because its so damn hot everyone has their windows up and AC on blast.
