I found that the green pads are for racing and very aggressive. They will wear your rotors down in a hurry. I have the light tan pads on mine. They are more for the street .
Also , you want to use the teflon in a tube not the tape when putting in the adapters. using tape on a tapered pipe thread will break the casting if you turn it in too far. The tape makes the taper even bigger and as you turn it in, the casting can crack.
