My pad in recent years has been EBC red. Better initial bite than OEM, no fade, no dust, no noise. If you track, EBC yellow might be a better choice but they tend to squeal at low speed. My only negative opinion is Hawk HPS which had scary bad initial bite when cold. They were OK after a few stops.
I have run power stop rotors and pads on my 2011 raptor for a few years they are much better than stock with little to no fade.
Stoptech brake discs and EBC brake oads.
I liked the feel of EBC Yellow better but everyone bags on EBC and they were dustier than the Hawks.
I went with Powerstop pads and centric rotors from Rock Auto and have been happy with the increase in bite and stopping power. I believe I purchased the hybrid ceramic/metallic pads.
Currently I have the Power Stop Z23 rotor/brake pad kit, which has worked really well. Originally I had bought some no-name pads/rotors off of Amazon that wore down within 9 months somehow, so I decided to spend more on the Power Stop kit for peace of mind.
I'm running the powerstop Z23 rotors and brake pad kit. Did it early spring last year. Very happy. I hated the initial bite of the stock pads, God forbid I hit a bump while braking. Pricey but happy with the look + performance. Im in the Midwest.
Ebc Red Stuff. They are a little milder than Yellow but still high performance. I can get a 20 min track session with limited fade. Although once I forgot to turn stability control off and they faded very badly after about 10 min. Less dusty than stock setup.
Yellowstuff lastet one track day (6 sessions of 30min) and maybe 200 miles to get to the track. It went metal to metal about 5 minutes before end of day. I liked the bite they had and I had absolutely no fading
Honestly, I think ebc hh are overpriced hot garbage.
