Is it worth it to upgrade brakes?
Upgrading your pads to better materials will help reduce brake fade, and will have an overall better “bite” when the brakes are applies. On top of the high risk of brake fade, the soft materials wear out faster than the semi-metallic counterparts. Trying to stop in time with worn, faded brake pads is a scary thought.
