The Axxis Ultimates dust a lot, but they work well. I have a set of Hawk HPS pads I'm going to use when the Axxis wear out and then I'll try the Axxis Metal Matrix.

Im considering it.....They look real nice and the price is awesome.

From IntensePower.com

- Quiet, rotor-friendly compound

NISMO R-tune parts:

Engineered for the hard-core enthusiast or weekend racer (off-road use). Street "civility" is compromised for maximum performance. These parts are not warranted by Nissan.

These seem contradictory. How can it be "quiet", if "Street civility is compromised for maximum performance"?

How is it a "rotor-friendly compound" if you just said it wears your OEM rotors much faster than OEM pads?

I just don't understand. I'm sure there's a good explanation though.

he explained that you compromise cold braking ability not "quietness". also, they may be rotor friendly with rotors better than stock.

they do work well but my wheels are black after 4 or 5 day whereas w/ the stock ones my wheels would still be clean after a weeks or so

get some rotora rotors and call it a day, maybe steel brake lines for better pedal feel
