Tfsi_Mike:
reassuring they last cause they're not a cheap pad

tony_danza:
Generally the rule of thumb with Pagids, they cost more but they last much longer.

A friend is running them on his Octavia RS with Tarox G88 both track and daily.
Yesterday he told me if he would swap to others he would miss the squeeling in town.

 :grin: :grin: :grin:

Very happy with braking even on track though - no fading, great feel.

 :drinking:



ps: compared to Endless they are cheap   :evilgrin:

Oh ref corrosive dust:

I think that's a problem since resolved with the compounds?? Minuscule red hot flecks of metal would stick in your paint, and when it rained having left the dust on the car they went rusty.

Race compounds don't really bother racers, obviously enthusiasts would prefer something a little less messy.
