I’d recommend DS2500’s. They are a bit noisy for everyday but the performance is worth it. Nice and predictable feel

Pros: good performance, predictable feel
Cons: a bit noisy

STOPTECH Brake pads

Rating 4.0

Stoptech Street pads for the Akebono brakes. I've only got 16k miles on them and they still look new, despite having drilled & slotted rotors. I do heavily downshift and engine brake, which explains the lack of wear. I'd buy them again as they're quiet, but they do produce a fair amount of brake dust.

Pros: quiet, long lasting
Cons: lots of brake dust
Mileage: 16000 km

Centric Brake pads

Rating 4.5

Centric pads and rotors are pretty good. As said above Akenono is OE for pads, maybe rotors too. I run Akebono pads and Brembo standard rotors on my cars. Nice and clean and never any noise and I swear the standard brembo rotors stop harder the centrics drilled/slotted rotors.

Pros: quiet, clean, good stopping

EBC Brake pads

Rating 3.0

I went with the APR rotors and EBC Yellow pads all around, which are supposedly track oriented. The rotors are good, but remember that any type of slotted or drilled rotors will be hard on pads than smooth rotors. EBC Yellows are the recommended pads for light track use. I did two track days and put on about 5k miles. The pads are slow to grab on the street, meaning that they need to warm up before heavy braking.

Pros: rotors are good
Cons: pads slow to grab
Mileage: 5000 km
