anybody using StopTech Street pads?
Looking for some new pads to replace OEM and go with the new rotors I ordered. Anybody using these:

Yes, I'm using the StopTech 309 street pad right now with oem rotors..
They're not bad, I'd say slightly better bite than oem.
I've run 3 lapping days with them plus a week down at the Tail of the Dragon and never experienced any fade.
They squeal lightly when outside temps are below 20 degrees celcius until they're warmed up.
I'm upgrading to Porterfield R4-1 pads when I get my Racing Brake BBK with 2-piece rotors front and rear.
I'm looking forward to those.😋

I have these on the rear. They grab a bit harder than the previous pads to the point where it starts to feel unbalanced in the rear. They also create incredibly large amounts of dust with minimal driving.

I'll agree that they do dust a little more than oem but most pads that are more aggressive, even if only slightly more aggressive, are going to dust more. I wouldn't say it's way more dust though.

So I finally have these installed and must say I love them. They offer a better feel, at least to me, then the OEM pads and they do generate a little more dust. Grab some spray wax and keep the wheels coated and you'll be fine. I find myself cleaning the wheels once a week and applying a new coat of wax with no issue.
