What are some good metallic race brake pads that are reasonably priced? When I hit the brakes a little hard it feels like they're wobbling and bouncing on me, I need some good pads until I get a bigger brake kit

PBR Metal masters. But what kind of racing? The Metal Masters are good for autocrossing and some tracks but can still get too hot.

try new rotors..

sounds like the freeplay are due to warped rotors and not the brake pads

You can get good cheap rotors from autozone for around $22.00 for the front. Aimco I think is the brand name. And its always a good idea to at least resurface the rotors of they have some milage on them, before installing new pads. You may put new pads on and shortly after have the same problem.
