I didn´t liked how they marked the rotors… very visible scratches… this is the only bad news.

I´m curious to know more about this “endurance” version… send me set of them with the wheels.
Yes, your assessment is about right on the Hawk DTC series pads on rotor wear and pad wear. Most of the race pads I have seen are not easy on the rotors cold or warm, but once hot they are okay.

I'll get you a price on the PFC08's and shoot them over.

There is also a CL brand of pads, which are very expensive, but very good. Here is more info on the CL RC6E:
