[QUOTE="Supercharged SVT, post: 956969, member: 69485"] i think it depends on the combo. The two need to work together. My current daily driver gets up an goes and I brake hard over half the time. After reading this thread, I went to the garage and looked. Lots of miles on the R1's and not one crack visible from the eye and a LED light. Wrong pads will overheat and break down rotors so the combo you choose has to compliment each other. It also depends on the rotors ability to shed heat and the way it was made or treated after, cryogenics helps make these extra strong. The stock system fades fast, always leaves a smell hanging, and I could see heat vapors escaping the Adrenalin wheels when I got home. It meant something had to change and heaven forbid I challenge myself with change with adding a blower and then slowing down. That, I couldn't possibly do. [/QUOTE]
