Stoptech street performance (I believe renamed to Stoptech sport) has always been my go-to for spirited driving and track day use in a miata. In faster heavier cars, I use carbotechs for track days, but that's just overkill for a miata.
Hawk hps ceramic pads
+1 on the hawk hp+. Fantastic pad
Akebono ceramic brake pads on RockAuto. Done, easy. They're an OG Japanese OEM, so you can expect consistency in quality. They're expensive but they're good and if you're going to get down on your knees and pop the wheels off you might as well do it right and get powerful and silent braking power for your trouble.
I run hawk hp+ for street and track use
On these cars Akebono is as good or better than OEM with far less dust.
I know this post is old but my 2019 Elantra SEL just hit 80k miles with no issues, and I bought it new. Normal oil changes, tires changed around 40-50k, and am doing a brake job myself this weekend (Most miles are highway miles, but I am still surprised how long the pads and rotors lasted).
Ran a kit of EBC brakes, green stuff i think on my old Mazda 6. Was a pretty decent upgrade over OEM and not much more expensive.
Im using yellowstuff on an rs5 b9 , installed it couple of weeks ago first impression is it has a better bite than OEM, but i think yellows won’t hold the car for more than 1hr of heavy street driving which is bad. But i have to test it further to verify this.
Meanwhile, my basic 330i standard rear brakes were apparently almost 500 bucks to replace…holy cow I don’t think I actually make bmw money anymore hahaha
