I've never run Pagids but the power stops seem adequate. They certainly last long. I have experienced some fade after about 30 minutes of my 2nd or 3rd session. Don't usually fade in the first session. And I've done 4 full track days, about 2 hours of track time each day, and they still have 3/4 pad thickness at least. |
I spoke a bit too soon it seems.
On my 5th track day my pads exploded basically. Cracked and fell apart after 2nd session. Glad they stayed together to get in pits. I had a spare set of front powerstops I swapped to. You can see in the 1st pic the thickness of the old pads compared to new. They are certainly worn, but still about 25% thick and I'm disappointed they fell apart.
Total wear time: 5 track days, 7 autocrosses, 1 summer of daily driving (5 months total).
Not sure how this compares to Pagids and other options but I'm not entirely thrilled.
