Ok, thanks for the advice.

This may sound stupid, but the leading edge means all "edges" of the pad that would contact the rotor?

Only 1 short edge per pad - the one to which the turning rotor first enters the end of each pad - the best way to describe it

It's going to be really hard getting the rear pads to heat up enough. Sell the Yellow's to a local racer and buy a set of Textar/Pagid OEM-stock pads for the rears. Been there done that.

This is what typically happens.. You are driving your car down the street (brakes COLD).. You pull up to a quick light and you have to scrub some speed off.. Standing at the stop light is a mother and her baby in a stroller... She reaches down and covers her babies ears as your brakes squeal>> she then flips you off..

LOL. That sounds like the voice of experience.
