Unless you're racing, use EBC green pads.
I use em on all my vehicles and they stop better than anything I've ever tried, including hawk.
1970 mini cooper, 2003 dodge hemi truck, 93 del sol, 2004 grand prix. 2001 trans am.
Even heavy use on the truck pulling a large trailer down a steep grade, they work much better than stock, have a much higher coeficiency of friction when cold and EBC give specs on their site for all their pads, including ceramics.

green stuff is pad id never touch, 1 pad that constantly gets bad reviews from users here in u.k and even from people who work at ebc, the red and yellow get good reviews though, just personal preference for me in that its never been pad that attracted me

i have specs of most other pads (endless, project mu, cobalt, porterfield), just need hawks (primarily looking into novice track pad than can be run on road for couple days as well now and again)
