I would not run them on the street. At least for me, the pad retainer clips fit poorly into the brake piston, so they are always slightly dragging. They are also like any other track pad and are loud and do not stop well when cold. I drive them to and from the track, but I wouldn't drive them on the street regularly.
Thanks for this, very helpful. Not too many objective observations about pads about online. Never had any problems with Carbotech XP-10 pads even in below freezing weather and they did squeal and dust but that's a don't care. Will have to write up something about the Pagid RS29 pads when I get the car back on the road.
