I put the street pad on last spring - they are porterfield r4-s pads. I love them and will definately use them again. no warm up problems on the street, they hold up really well for driving school use, some fade towards the end of a sesion, but not much. still some dust but way less than stock, and more brownish in color, rather than dark black.

wear is fine. Like I said, I put them on last spring, and expect them to last through next years driving school season. I think I will probably have to replace them next fall, or maybe the following spring. I also have slotted rotors which are probably using the pads up faster than plain rotors.
