If you really want to go non-OEM though, I love my Hawk HPS' pads.

Solid feel, improved stopping ability, and they produce alot less dust than OEM's.

I got hawk's as well, but I do some autocrossing, so I want something a little better than autozone.

But autozone for DD.

This is true, if you never brake hard or tack race or Auto-x your car.

Just a simple, OEM car that sees no hard braking (grand ma driving) OEM is all you need.
