rs19 (yellow)

930man: on 993gt3's, RA19 front and rear are about same thickness and no, my rear doesn't wear faster than front. i got throught 3 sets of front for every 2 sets of rears.

I've been using the black OEM pads (980 351 939 00) - not sure if this is the same as the RS19 (yellow) pads. The pads are all black - I know that they are made by Pagit - says so right on the pad but I'm not sure what they relate to.

I just fitted the second set since getting new PCCB rotors (first rotors lasted a year and Porsche replaced them - so much for the myth...). I'm afraid to use anything else.

BTW - what do RS19's cost? The pads I've been buying run about $320 a set (fronts) with shipping.

seams strange to me just looks as if the rear pad is 20% thinner than front after 7 events... i am not gentle on the brakes either
