In the Cobalt Friction line, if you're on street-class tires, I would do XR2. XR1 can send a street-class tire into ABS very easily. I've driven my friend's E90 M3 with XR1 on 200TW tires, and the brake pedal would grind with ABS quite easily.....not a pleasant situation.

For a street-class tire, the guy who created the Cobalt compounds recommended XR2-front/XR3-rear. When I moved into slicks, then I moved up to XR1-front/XR2-rear, which is what I'm on now.

How many days do you guys usually see out of those pads?
