The verdict

Best for: Fast street cars whose owners hate cleaning wheels.

The trade-off: Needs a proper bed-in and a warm-up; first cold stop of the day is soft.

Reading the numbers

Standout traits: quietness (8/10), low dust (9/10), rotor friendliness (8/10).

No outright weak axis for its intended duty.
