I have a similar but much less pronounced overhang on my R4 pads. I =
ignore it and they run fine.

Obviously we don't have many choices for our brakes for racing.  We need =
these companies to build us quality parts.  As if brakes might have an =
important job to do in as safe a way as possible.  These things are not =
inexpensive, but they are built kinda cheap.   I went through quite a =
time consuming process trying to understand and determine what was going =
on with front brake issues and felt sharing what I found could help =
others.  Porterfield was willing to address the problem, but why was =
there a problem in the first place?  They sell these pads to a lot of =
racers.  Does this R4 pad always hang over the edge of the rotor?  One =
would think and hope that they are all made to the same specs for our =
Triumphs and whatever other car they might fit.  Carbotech was more =
difficult to deal with and less willing to accept the fact that there =
was any problem at all.  I went back and forth with phone calls and =
sending them photos of what I was finding.  It was really a total pain =
in the behind.  Hawk pads have been of excellent quality and exactly the =
same part every time and they have the closes tolerances between the =
backing plate and caliper slot.   But, they seem to be harder on the =
rotors and don't have as much of a progressive feel. =20
