Carbotech Bobcat 1521 -> AX6

Anyone gone from the Bobcats to the AX6 pads. I'm looking for a little more initial bite than the Bobcats provide and might try the AX6 pads. However, I heard the Bobcats aren't compatible with the AX6 pads (ie rotors need to be turned or replaced to upgrade). Anyone know if this is true/anyone made this swap?

Well, it's generally a good idea to swap rotors when you're going to a more aggressive pad, but it's not absolutely necessary. However, if you can tell there is decent wear on the rotor, I would go ahead and swap them for new ones.
