On m yold company car ( a peugeot 306 TD ) i always cooked the brakes to the point of full on fade when driving on my local country roads (very windy narrow UK quality roads). My garage suggested using the ebc greens ( they used them in some of their competion pugs) to solve the problem.

The greens took a bit of warming up, the brakes fely very wooden at the 1st junction / stop I came to, but once I got a bit of heat into them they performed really nice. For a very hard driven road car I would not want to move up the temp range of brake pads due to lack of flexibility at low temps
