The only great think about it, is virtually no dust (even less than Hawk).
I'm no brake expert but I believe you need to take into acct the rotors too - as in, are they softer or harder than stock (just like pads). You need to find the right combination of rotors and pads for what you're trying to accomplish. Your trusted indy should know this.
