Pad: Porterfield R4
Suggested Use: Track Days, Time Trials, Racing
Rotor: Stoptech Sport Slotted 340x30mm
Fluid: ATE Type 200
Dust: Moderate
Actual Use: Track Days
Rating for Use: Excellent. Wear is extremely slow, they seem very friendly to rotors, and are compound-compatible with the street-oriented R4-S, making for easy swaps between pads.
