Brakes are a composition issue. rears wore out at 34,000 miles on my 22 Taos S. Replaced with Raybestos Hybrid ceramic and with 87,000 they still have plenty of life.
Ferrodo DS2500 is probably the best dual duty pad.
Love my Raybestos ST43 on my Corvette for the track with 200 series tires. They can be a bit annoying on the street.
Raybestos Element 3 in the Forester (surprisingly good pads and cheap AF)
Ferodo ds2500 pads which are a high performance street pad which is trackable. I took it to the track today and had zero fade or brake issues. Then, I let my crazy fast instructor drive and rip the shit out of the car for 20 min straight. By the end of the round, the brakes were smoking. But still, no fade, and those weren’t even track only pads.
I've been using the DS1.11 this year, and they've been fantastic. I have about 12 or so track days on them and still have some life.
I like the DS3.12 on my GR86
Ferodo DS2500 feel good but don't last as long as the CP's and have a bit more dust.
I have the Raybestos EHT on my ol' Camry and Avalon. They lack longevity and will pulse toward then end of their usable life. The quality control has slipped a little of the years. You might have to file fit them(as with any pad). I'd say that they won't tolerate a hack installer. My EHT stopped better than my Akeboner proacts.
I purchased Ferodo DS2500 pads for autocross with the Brembos when my stock pads were shot. Lubed them up using CRC brake grease and even bought separate Girodisco backing plates to help with noise. It was absolutely terrible. Loud squealing all the time from 15mph to zero. Down hills, in traffic, or coming to a stop.
