You'll find that most race pads, whether it be Hawk, Carbotech, etc use a thinnerbacking plate than OEM.
Because of how the Raybestos pads are cut, the backing plates are much thicker than what Honda ships their pads on.

I have a set of DTC60s that have a lot of stopping power. I haven't experienced the fade as mentioned, but I have bent the backing plates on three different sets of Hawk pads(they came with the car). I'm thinking about looking into those Raybestos pads on my next change.
