Default If you can handle a little noise, I have a set of Pagid Oranges new in the box for sale

blues are great, but can't handle any track use. Oranges are going to get a bit noisy if you go long times between track events, but have decent cold bite and are trackable! $250 new, will sell for $180 + shipping.

Default I'm using them. I haven't tried a 100 different pads on my car but these work fine. Not too noisy,

never had fade problems for street use.

Default I have Axxis Metal Masters for street..Pagid Orange for track (Stoptech 355mm kit)

I am going to change to Ferodo DS2500 for street though.

Default I use blues on the street in mine

And they can squeal slightly when just coming to a stop if you're light on the brakes. Also you can feel a difference in stopping power when they're stone cold -- if you keep constant pressure on the brake you can feel the car start to slow more as the pads warm up. FWIW when it's time to replace them, I'll probably go with the same pads.

Pagid orange is very noisy. I ran those on the street for a while and now they are a dedicated track pad with a set of spare bedded-in rotors I keep on the shelf.

Default Sport Blues squeal very loudly on the 996TT, afraid to try them on the S4.

I use the Axxis supplied with the Stoptechs for the street and Pagid Oranges for the track. I will sooon be throwing Ferodo DS2500s on the rear caliper for both street and track use....and will eventually consider getting the same pads for Stoptech caliper to replace Axxis as my street pad.
