I also have the eradispeed rotors and for the last few years have hade stock gm / delco pads and they worked great this summer I replaced those with the hawk pads and I think the stock pads where way better I hate to say that because I had high expectations being "hawk" but they really just don't stop the car as good. just my 2 cents

I have Baer erandspeed plus rotor's on my 2000 Camaro SS with Hawk HPS pads. They are awesome! HAWK HPS does leave brake dust.
EPC's are good too. I would not use ceramic or kevlar pads with baer erandspeed rotors.

^^I agree. I have the z-rated carbon metallics with my slotted and drilled rotors and they can really take a beating with no fade. $100 2yr warranty at Autozone or $120 at Kragen, lifetime warranty.

I'm using EBC Green Stuff pads. Grab great, a little squeaky at times but the dust is pretty low. I'd buy them again. Using them on xdrilled and sloted rotors.

Porterfield Racing Carbon Kevlar pads here

if u like stopping real good at speeds of 120-150mph then these are ur best bet. they have done wonders for me bringing the car down from 150mph with ease.

Yo I got the Hawks and love how they stop. I had AC Delcos and they were dusty and aight at stopping. Im going with Hawks again. You can get front and backs from a couple of sponsors for like 125? i think.

Hawks seem to be the best i have found on these cars for an all-round DD type pad that can hang with ALLOT of abuse and still come back for more.
