Brake pads Ferodo or Hawk Performance

I had a 172,Clio with ferodo DS2500 pads all round and brembo high carbon vented front discs and solid rear discs.

I put Hawk Performance drilled and slotted on my 2017 STI. Ceramic pads. Have saved my car a couple times when assholes decided to jump the line and do a U-turn in front of me.

I swap mine the day before. They aren't race pads, just hawk hp+. I wouldn't want to daily them, they're loud and dusty but work totally fine on the street so I drive them to my track days

I run the Ferodo DS2500 which would probably meet your criteria. Fair warning though - they make noise, especially in the fixed Brembo calipers. You have to regrease them every few months.

I think getting some nice aftermarket brake rotors and hawk pads would be good.

Buy Ferodo DS2500 brake pads then buy rotors according to your budget, forget about drilled rotors if anything go with slotted and if within your budget get two piece rotors in order to save unsprung weight.

My latest setup is below and works well for the handful of HPDE’s I’ll do each year. Fronts: Hawk DTC-60 pads

I’ve got StopTech st-40’s and run Hawk HP+ pads. They have good bite and hold up pretty well, they’re just SUPER loud until they’re hot and are also fairly dusty

Many people don't like ferodo pads, but I use ds2500 for dual duty, but they can be hard to find. Just got to be careful getting off the highway with them when they are cold.

My rear pads cracked after 3 months, 4k km of use.
