Anyone out there who installed Porterfield R4-S brake pads wear out a set yet? If so after how many miles?

I’ve gone 35k on mine and they have not shown any appreciable signs of wear.

I have 40,000 miles on a full set. Not even close to worn down.

Paired them with VAP’s 2-piece rotors and the breaking is insane. Far less break dust than OEM too.

I've got 26K miles on mine and they still have lots of life left in them. This is going to be really variable though. I see a lot of highway miles, just because of where I live.
