And what I do, is run one of each. Buy a full set of metallic and a full set of organic. Use one of each on each corner. It's a good compromise of cold/hot stopping, wet conditions, and won't eat drums as fast

run the metallics on the front side of the drum and the organics on the back? or vice versa?

If you are buying the correct metallic shoes there should never be any need to mix.

I used to buy a mintex shoe for my 412 (same exact part # as type 3 late). Awesome set for all driving conditions except for track. I will see if I can find the part #.
