I'm not getting them hard enough to engage ABS they just "feel" like they are not biting well enough to stop the way I'd like them to from higher speeds/spirited driving, not sure if I'm explaining it properly,,,,not tracking or racing, just wanting better brake feel.....The saying in racing is: Brakes don't stop the car; tires do.
'Better' brakes address feel and fade; however, as long as you can engage full ABS then tires are the limiting factor in stopping distance, not the brakes - as Totopo states.
Of course, if you don't want to press as hard for the same amount of braking, then different pads may offer more bite so one perceives that the brakes are 'better' - but stopping distances won't change until you change tires.
