Brake pad choices. Which one to choose? (1 Viewer)

I recently put on new rotors and 100 pads. The pads needed some sanding to fit, about 10 min total with an orbital sander. A small amount of grinding is needed to make them match perfectly with the rotor (Dan can explain in detail). I do notice significantly better stopping power than prior to the service. They're supposed to wear slower than the 80 pads, which is good as many report 10k on the 80 pads.

Perk,

My memory is short, but not that short.

oops...just trying to reach Junior status. By the way I think performing birfield service should automatically vault one out of rookie status...no really, I've got pictures

With 30K miles my (presumed) stock '97 front pads are half way worn to the replace limit.
