Default Best Brake Pads for D.& S. Rotors

What's the best brake pads and compound that I should use on my new D.& S. Rotors? And possibly where to get them. Any help would be greatly appreciated. jwcej@msn.com
Thanks, have a great Sunday and God Bless Our Troops and the U.S.,

I just installed my front Cross Drilled and slotted rotors along with PBR pads today (pads from Strano Performance) and Back Brembo blanks with Hawk pads (hawk pads also from Strano). I can feel a tremendous difference in branking, my pedal feels alot stiffer. the pads are great, I have no squeal what so ever.

The difference that you feel isnt due to the rotors being drilled and slotted, its from installing the fresh parts.

Pad compound on the rotors wont matter. They dont need anything speacial so run whatever pad you want. Its just a matter of how much dust you want to deal with.
