I use Hawk pads. They work and they are quiet.

I had EBC reds on my car, they stopped real nice, but didn't very last long on the track (< 2 hrs of track driving). But they might have better life on the street. Considering your choice of rotors it sounds like you aren't planning on taking the car to the track...

Ditto. Got the HPS+. Using them with the Brembo CD/Slotted rotors.
