Brake pad recomendations needed
#3
I used to autocross and daily-drive on both EBC Reds and Hawk HPS. I'd probably give a slight edge to the Reds, because they dusted a bit less. Their downside was they were like wood blocks at around 0*F in the winter until they got warm. Since you're in SoCal, that won't be an issue. Both are good, though. Neither one squeaked, which you get from higher-temp, track pads either.

At 5000 miles I just put on a set of duralast (autozone) ceramic pads that they listed for a cobalt ss w/brembo. No more noise, No more black dust after 100 miles , stops the same. Best 70 bucks I ever spent.

Im on a stockish pad right now which suck but i have had ebd greens on my old mini cooper and they were phenomenal.....which says a lot cause minis stop on a dime on stock brakes.
im going to ebc yellows here shortly....was gonna do a brembo swap but i'd rather use those funds for something else
