Why would drilled only be at more risk than D&S?

Yep, I got the HAWK pads.
Mine did rub a little probably for the first 20mins of driving, but i just assumed all pads did that to bed them in.

I wouldn't worry about it, I beleive its normal unless its still doing it after a long time.

I have the drilled and slotted with Hawk pads. No real racing yet, but they have been on since this past Aug. No problems with them at all. No noticeable fade or noise. I drive hard around town and am hard on the brakes, and have had zero problems with them.

Barely noticeable, about the same noise as the car on tickover, but it goes within mins. Nothing to worry about.
