How long did your Rotora / Axxis Ultimate Pads Last

I've driven on them for 23,000 miles and they're already metal to metal.. It's starting to scratch up the rotor! Crap! Do you know if I can get them resurfaced still? It sounds horrible and I need to change them soon..

Anyone else have to change them already after 23,000 miles?

I got the prb metal masters in the front that I got from that group buy a long time ago. I'm using powerstop cross drilled rotors in the front w/ them and I have had them installed for maybe 18-20k....and I have like 40% left on the pads.

I think I still have the stock OEM pads...almost 80k miles so far. I should get some new front rotors and 4 new pads soon. Would you all recommend slotted, cross-drilled, or slotted w/ cross-drilling?

I heard slotted are less likely to warp/crack and are actually more efficient at heat dissipation than drilled.

I just ordered some slotted rotoras and already have my PBR Delux organic pads in. Do the metal masters really sqeal at all, or will they be jsut as quiet as the organic pads? I just don't want any squeeling from teh brakes. my rear rotor is shot and I'm getting pissed off enough as it is with the current rotor squeal.
