Pad life depends on riding conditions, frequency of use, and rider weight. Expect several hundred miles of use, but regularly inspect for wear.
Perform several controlled stops from moderate speed, gradually increasing pressure to seat the pads against the rotor properly.
They are designed for trail, XC, all-mountain, urban, and e-MTB riding.
Replace the pads when the pad material is worn down to the wear indicator or the minimum thickness.
Yes, these pads offer good performance in wet conditions, but braking distances may be slightly longer.

Ensure compatibility by checking the manufacturer's recommendations for your specific brake model.
Check for air in the brake lines. Bleed the brakes if necessary. Ensure the pads are properly bedded in. Inspect the pads and rotors for contamination and clean or replace as needed.
