Depends on how hard you are on them, mine were replaced within a month since I roasted them at the road course.

And I have 20k miles on my stock pads with two track days on them, and I have about 3/8" of life left in them. PP ecoboost here. When I do replace them, however, I'll probably get Carbotech 1521s for street. Already looking at xp8s for the track.

What are the differences between the AX6 and XP8?

The second link I posted talks about it - but from my understanding, the AX6s are great for autox, but will not survive road course use. They won't handle the added stress of the higher speeds and longer braking zones of a road course and will overheat/wear out much too quickly.
