Default Brakemotive or other

I am going to need brakes, very soon.
Do I get the brakemotive deal, or are their brakes of lower quality?
If they are then what? EBC are $165 for just the red stuff pads. Are Hawk any good? Raybestos? Bendix? Are their any offerings from Brembo or SSBC that are not through the roof?

Thanks for the help guys

I put the Brakemotive rotors with ceramic pads on my 02 Corvette, I was skeptical but gave them a try and they perform fine. You can spend more but for the money they are fine. A little extra bling and stopping/breaking power is fine. I spend most of my time on Corvette Forum and Brakemotive receives positive reviews.

Actually, I guess it doens't matter, the brakemotive sale doesn't include the GXP so it's not going to be any cheaper

Well it looks like I'm going to go with the Raybestos Advanced Technology. They are priced really well and are good quality. Will let you know how they work.

I put the Raybestos AT rotors and ceramic pads on about 3 weeks ago and so far so good. Quality parts. Once they were bedded in and working optimal, best brakes I have had. I have them on the wifes car too and same results.
