Of the Raybestos pads, my favorite is the ST-43, and overall I found it "tolerable" despite its hunger for disc wear. That said, I haven't run it in over a decade, the marketplace and the benchmark has moved onward. Now there are many better pads out there. There are so many Carbotech (now G-Loc) fans because they're actually that good.
but how? .. I am not dissing but just sharing my own experience in the bolded sentence, FYI I am not affiliated with any of the two, lol. Stating a simple fact is not dissing the other brand and there is no polite way to say one is doing a better job than the other..especially when/if others have similar results. I never said Carbotechs are POS or not worth the money..

I had a chance to compare Carbotechs (XP12s) with ST43 (same car, same tire, same track with similar conditions) and immediately noticed that ST43s do a better job (as it did with my previous cars) except maybe the noise level (not a whole a lot but Carbotechs were less noisy I think). Please do share those "better" pads and how you define "better"?
