Use the stock brakes:

1: Get sport/race pads.

2: New rotors. (duralast blanks are great)

3: And good DOT4 fluid.

These will stop better than any tire you're willing to spend money on.

Well the best setup IS oem, IMO. OEM Type-R (accord wagon, legend) calipers, a 15/16th or 1" booster, and carbon pads with 11" rotor. With 1/8" shaved off the brackets and redrilled 11" 4x114 prelude blanks, they work perfect, esp if you are lowered a bit, use better dampeners/springs, and have extra weight (turbo) in the engine bay.

Otherwise upgraded stockers usually are fine. Just don't get 'race' pads, as they are worse until they heat up. And get carbon over semi-metalic - less dust, longer life, better fade resistance, less wear, more stopping power. They just cost a big more.
