Chris,
It depends. Beyond 50% wear, the pads still retain their original friction charateristcs, but are degraded in their ability to dissipate heat. If you are not experiencing fade/pedal softness, you could leave them in until that starts.

Changing pads at around 50% is typical racer behavior, because its a given that fade/pedal softness will turn up in the middle fo a life or death dice. No such pressure situations in DE, right???
