I am in dire need of new pads. I am most likely going to go with the Axxis Ultimates or metal masters. I am mainly concerned about cold braking power. I know some pads won't stop well when it is cold out. For those who have these pads, do you have a problem when its 10 degrees out or so.

Also, which are a better pad (cleaner, quieter) for everyday driving?

 

I had ultimates on my last teg and cold stopping performance was excellent, they squealed a little on hard braking but i'd sacrifice that for good stopping power. I have Apex'i A750 pads on my teg now and they are awesome from cold, they actually took a bit getting used to as they bite so hard from cold!

 

Ultimates and Metal Masters don't require any warm up before max. braking power like a race pad. If you like initial bite go for the Ultimates, they have significantly better initial bite than the Metal Masters. However they will wear faster than the Metal Masters and generate more dust. This dust is very easily cleaned off as opposed to OEM dust which tends to be more sticky.

 

little squeaking noise but work great when there cold ...and very cost effective

daily drove on them for a few months...and on track twice with them
