Shadow has an 'in' on what all the cool people are getting for pads. Plus he's a cheap sob, so they'll be affordable too.

I've always had good luck with Hawk HPS pads for any car I've owned. They are just as much as stock pads and work great. Main downside is they do produce a good amount of dust.

I want very limited dust. Im tired of making my car spotless and then having the whole hatch coated in it ha

I'm running Hawk HPS pads with Centric Premium rotors. A solid brake bleed and proper brake in (bedding) of the pads and they work great. I have heard the EBC Greenstuff pads work very well too with less brake dust, but you would have to research that. The amount of brake dust I get isn't too bad. I run my car pretty hard.

I've never had a huge problem with dust with my HPS pads

How much did those centric premium rotors cost you?

I don't recall exactly. I'm thinking only like 35.00 each though. They are not drilled or slotted. Just good blank rotors with the caps coated to keep them from rusting.
