Default Endless SS-S pads

Anyone here using these pads? I need to change my brembo pads very soon and ive read good things about these. They will be used on my daily driver, probably just one track event this year but not sure. I'm looking for something with low dust and equal if not better bite than stock... these seem to suit that. Opinions from users would be appreciated.

not really the proper pad for a track day, but they are excellent.....no noise, very very low dust levels, and nice bite even when cold

if you want more of a dual purpose pad (club type track day and street), I'd go for the CCX. I am running these now on my car, and they are fantastic - better bite than my DS2500's, less dust, and they are silent even when cold

Project Mu NS I believe are supposed to be awesome pads. Low dust.

Just put the SSS on my Brembo Z for a street pad. So far so good. Easy to install and excellent bite, much better than stock. I don't plan on using them for track days, so I should see plenty of life out of them.

I ran Project Mu B-Force pads on both my daily driven NSX and the Z. They definitely dust less than the OE Brembo pads and felt much better on track(including 2 Time Trials) without fading. I'd definitely recommend these pads.

Just did a little investigation on the Endless CC-X's:
The CC-X is a ceramic-carbon-metallic compound, which is developed for fast road cars to be used at high speed driving and track use. It needs no warming to be effective, is hard wearing and quiet in operation. These pads have a wide operating temperature from 0-700 °C, so even when being used hard on the track will not fade in use. The initial bite and response from these pads is excellent even at very high speeds (250-300 km/h) (155-185mph) and so also the pedal feel and brake balance is superb when using these pads.
But, average price of $500 for all four calipers?!?!

isn't the operating temp for cc-x a little high for street purposes?

I've had mine for almost a year now and like them. I autocross them regularly and have used them during a couple HPDEs.

Here's my "review" of them..

Project Mu recently released their Level Max 900 pads, with a 0-900 Celsius temperature rating....
