they are prolly "worth" it because they desipate heat quicker, but my 4x4 doesnt do lemans races.

just basic new pads and rotors for any auto parts store will give you good basic trail braking.

If you were gonna spend that much you might as well upgrade to 4 wheel disc brakes, by that I mean change the drums in the rear to disc.
