RS29's

So work overwhelmed me this week and I just got to swapping back to the OEM pads post COTA - I have a E90 328i daily I use for the commute - and unlike my last post pondering how I went through an entire set of RS29's in a weekend, this time they look maybe 20% used.

Will admit I had random pedal feel Sunday - likely air in the lines - but still baffled how last time consumed an entire set of pads, but this time - as has been the usual schedule - I used about 20%

Still of the opinion that they shipped the wrong compound last time, but who knows...

Just random thoughts being output here...

If you are eating the pads that fast, is it the wrong compound?

Rs29 max temp is something like 700C right?

How about something like Gloc r12?
