Default Brake Pads
What break pads would yall reccomend with my drilled rotors? I just got the SS up to school and when it was dropped off my dad said there was about 25% left on the pads, so what would yall reccomend for good daily drivable stopping power?

Not to hijack, but do those have much brake dust?

I havent had any brake dust issues with the Hawk Ceramics, when I ran the Hawk HP Plus I got alot of brake dust but they are for Autocross etc. and came on my old car when I bought it.

Hawks are good but I use Akebono Ceramics. They are excellent for stopping power and they take forever to wear down
