I'm pretty good about using race pads on the street... but I shy away from Reds for 100% daily driving. Not worth it in my opinion. If you do events, the extended warmup would be a tradeoff that's worth it.. but for driving around town, the Greens have more than enough temperature headroom for anything you do. And they have more bite, too. The reds just have additional fade resistance for extended race use IMO.
