55's are far better under hot conditions and won't fade as quick, ideal for track.
44's are uprated road pads, but do work well from cold
Use different pads for road and track and they will both last you twice as long - so its better economy that way

1155 are still driveble on road but much better at high temperature, still I did drivetime trial on 1144's with no problems apart from smoke and flames after stopping
