I bought Akebono pads and Centric rotors on Amazon. Best combination in my opinion. Akebono Pro ACT pads are ceramic and last a very long time with hardly any dust and super quiet. Made in the USA too.

Pros: long lasting, quiet, low dust

I’ve used EBC HH pads on front and rear for years they’re awesome for street. I would never get organic ever again, tried them once and as expected they have very soft bite but most importantly they wore out completely in a couple months, waste of money

Pros: awesome for street use
Cons: organic pads wear quickly

EBC Brake pads

They'll absolutely be ok to use for the street. In fact, most supersports come with oem HH sintered pads.

They may wear a little quicker, but you'll get better stopping power and you should certainly feel a difference.

I recently changed the pads on my 600RR to the EBC HH sintered pads and I'm really happy with how they feel.

Pros: better stopping power, good feel
Cons: wear quicker
Vehicle: Honda

The inability to easily modulate light braking is the main reason I swapped in some EBC Redstuff pads. Very linear and better ultimate braking. You couldn't pay me to go back to the stock pads.

Pros: very linear, better braking

With EBC Yellowstuff Pads and Motul Fluid I was fade-free during multiple 25 minute sessions at my local 2.5 mile track. My front brake rotors read a temp of 650 degrees at the end of each session with ambient air temp of about 85 degrees.

Pros: fade-free during track sessions

Here's what I did at 30k miles as the originals had faded badly StopTech slotted rotor with EBC redstuff pad - I'm certain you'll get a thousand recommendations on better stuff. Love, love, love these brakes. Very little dust.

Pros: very little dust
Mileage: 48280 km

I switched to EBC redstuff ceramic from my OEM pads on my MX-5. They are marketed as slightly higher performance than OEM with much improved wear and dust levels. In my experience they are maybe slightly more grabby initially, otherwise they perform similarly to OEM, but their claims about dust levels were not true at all in my case, they dusted FAR more than OEM. I get noticeable dust after a few days compared to maybe a few weeks before.

Pros: slightly more grabby
Cons: dusts far more than OEM

I wouldn't; it could throw off braking performance ... like now your rear pads bite harder than your front. Plus your front do most of the work.

Cons: unbalanced braking
