oh trust me, i have :)
just had on stoptech "club race" pads which i baked @ pahrump. went back to stock because they were pretty much dead.
but honestly, with the stasis rotors it takes quite a bit of effort to get them to an unhappy temp - even with agressive street driving they stay relatively cool.

Nah, they bit too hard initially (IMHO) and leave the...
driver thinking he has more braking power than is available. I switched to Carbotech Bobcats for the street and find the initial bite less dramatic and the feel more linear as I push the pedal. I like them more because of that.
On top of that the stockers dust a lot...more than my Carbotechs at least.
I guess the only thing I liked about the stockers was that they never squeaked and had a better bite in the rain.
