Should work well!
I bought the Klim Traverse jacket and pants combo. I tried Thor Impact Rig SE and I didn't like it underneath the jacket and thought it might be way too heavy and not the most durable option. The next option was to get internal armor and I thought long and hard about whether or not to get the Klim base armor or the T5 D3O armor for more money.
I ended up getting the base armor for 2 reasons - lighter weight and greater coverage. I plan on riding off road with this gear so these were the most important criteria for me. The D30 pads are significantly heavier I hear, and they are smaller in size. The gains from what I understand are that they are more comfortable and thinner. My take - if you plan on running off road and want more protection, the thicker, larger (and lighter) base armor is better. If you are on the roads, and prefer comfort and low bulkiness, then the D30 is the option to choose. That being said, the base armor feels really good and it's really not even that bulky at all. Plus, it's less than half the cost of the D30!
