the only thing about the low profile ones is they cut a little better on the pc as they are a little smaller and lighter than the traditional 6 inch lake country pads...

The white pads are for polish, and the orange are light cut. I love these pads!! They are extreamly easy to control! They spin faster then the 6.5, due to their size. Give them a try, you will not be dissapointed.

I use them almost exclusively for everything now.. Less vibration, easier to center, more cut, dont gum up like CCS do at times. The whites are nice too. I even ordered extras.

I have one if you want it? I'll send it with your wire in the package. Mine came in an order long time ago but I don't use backing plate pads. Think it was an Wolfgang pad?

Wow! That is suprising I think they blow the LC white pads out of the water.

I have used mine for about 2 months now. About 10 cars or so, maybe yours were defective.
