Which pads do you think are the best with all things considered(Dust, Squealing, Performance/Resistance to Fade, Cost)

 

Ferodo DS2500

 

aren't the HP+'s track/street?

whereas the HPS is hawk's street pad?

 

That is correct. But the Hawk HPS is 'too' mild. That for spirited driving you can surpass the operating temperature very easily. I have found that the HP works the best for street/spirited driving/autocross. But they leave dust that can sometimes NOT come off.

Albany , not the greatest performance pad, but pads and rotors are wear items and should be replace periodicly. Albany @ $19 for the front pads

 

You forgot Endless pads. Endless CC-X's

 

I'm not going to vote since I have no experience with most of those pads, but the Axxis Ultimates are on my car, and I love 'em--even with cooked fluid and a mushy pedal. Can't wait to flush the system and really give 'em a test.

Talk to Andie at Cobalt Friction (www.cobaltfriction.com), he'll give you some great info and a great H-T deal on pads.

 

I have Hawk HPs and I love them but w/ silver rims and them dusting like a ****.. my rims start looking dark in no time...I have to wash my car weekly they perform well though

 

project miu!

 

Yeah, uncook your fluid already.

Noise= no squeaking or squealing
Dust= more than stock, the rims turn black in about 2 weeks with normal driving
