if it's just a daily driver, get autozone pads. if it's a "fun" car, look in the ht sponsor marketplace.

i run brembo rotors and axxis ultimate ceramic pads.

Honda rotors and pads from the Acura dealership I work at... Although I don't suggest getting rotors from a dealership(extremely expensive), but I'm just **** like that about getting OEM.

Cobalt Friction GT Sports.

They are awesome pads, great for DD and track use but they dust alot and squel like a bitch. If you want better performance you have to make some sacrifices.

OEM shmoeeyem

I've been running AutoZone pads almost since I bought my car in 2001. They have a lifetime warranty (for whatever reason who knows) so when a set wears out, I go and get another set free.

I also run AutoZone rotors because they're only about $28 each for the front and $17 each for the rear.

I usually use Hawk HPS, Axxis Ultimates, AEM, or OEM pads for street driving.

I have the autozone Duralast Gold Ceramic Pads up front with autozone rotors. Lifetime warranty.

I wonder how the Duralast ceramic pads would compare to the other ceramic pads such as Hawk HPS, Axxis Ultimates, AEM, and green/red stuff ?

I just recently replaced my rotors and brake pads and I went with Brembo rotors and Akebono ProAct ceramic pads... stops better than before and my brake pedal feels alot firmer.

brembo blanks will work, i thought about getting some for my 96 civic ex coupe, but i needed to change my rotors bad and didnt want to wait on shipping so i just bought some o'reilly brake rotors and pads, brake shoes, and rear drums.

so far so good, i also have auto zone rotors and pads on the gf's 93 ex coupe..
their working really well....

green stuff, 80K miles, daily driven on ebay slotted/drilled rotors. Brakes and rotors got 80K in over 3 years. Still got about 1/4 brake pad left and rotors are still smooth. And they brake a little better than stock.
