Stock pads are okay, nothing to write home about but they work. What's the intended usage, i.e. road, off-road, mix of both?

Is this likely, does this apply to Hylex as much as to Spyres, and if so, what is the best option?
They are OK - Shimano organics probably bite better and wear at the same rate. SwissStop do pads too that are supposed to be great but spendy.

I've got some Hylex (non-drilled version) waiting to go on a new build. A friend at work was saying that his TRP pads (Spyres) were terrible and swapping to Shimano transformed his brakes.
Is this likely, does this apply to Hylex as much as to Spyres, and if so, what is the best option? If the consensus is to swap, I'd rather just build with new pads from scratch rather than swap them after a couple of weeks of fancying about on sub-par brakes.
