Default Just put new rotors/pads on? Need Opinions on raybestos pads

Well I just put autozone Rotors and raybestos QS (Quiet Stop) Pads on... the car had warped rotors all the way around and the pads where basicaly just metal (past wear markers) anyways it brakes nice now.. but I was wondering should I take these pads off and go with hawk HPS??? pep boys said if I didnt like these I could tkae them off and just swap them out should I do it or will I not really notice the difference?

Thanks, Ryan

I don't know about the Raybestos Q/S, but the Hawks do give out quite a bit of brake dust on your rims. If its breaking fine I see no benefit in switching, unless your going to be autocrossing or racing then the Hawks would be better.

u got a LS1 car with better cali's up front.. wonder how they'd work with those on my car Iv also thought about new brake lines (the steel ones) I dont know how much of a boost in braking those would give though?
