Frank, the organic pads don't stop as well in any conditions, but
I have'nt noticed any significant difference between wet and dry
weather unless I go through deep water. Then they suck
until you have made a couple of stops. I'd much prefer the factory
brakes, but since I am not using them I have to plan ahead if I have
to submerge my brakes. I am not recommending anyone switch to
organic pads for same braking. It was just economics for me.
