This is why I wanted the PFC pads as no one seems to have issues going back and forth with OEM pads and rotors that aren't fresh rotors.

If PFC doesn't come out with pads soon, I may just use the Carbotechs again as the Pagid pads are also ceramic and, IMO, that is what creates the compatibility issues. Grrrrr...
Did you experience any fade with the Carbotech's? I ran XP10's all around and it got so bad I lost my brakes. I assume XP12's will solve the overheating issue, but I would hate to drop more $$ and have the same issues.
