OEM Sport Brakes vs XP8 vs XP10

nah, only when you are using them. They dont make noise when you are just driving around. Not a dumb question.

No one mentioned it yet, but track pads on the street can eat rotors---high wear rate. Certain track pads are very harsh on rotors. When used correctly, the pads leave a film of material on the rotor. This is friction source. If you use track pads on the street, the braking is done with pad material against on rotor surface, not pad material against pad material. If track pads are too cold, they "scrape" off the pad material and then start wearing on the rotor face.

This is why using track pads on the street can help smooth out rotor shudder when you get street pads too hot and leave uneven deposits (99% of the time wrongly called warped rotors)
