Street/Auto-X Brake Pads

Anyone know who makes good street/auto-x pads for the Brembo F-40/50?

Has anyone used Hawk or Pagid brake pads?

Check out Ferrodo DS2500 pads. I've heard good things about them from STI owners who swapped out their stock STI pads for DS2500s. Ferrodo also has the DS3000 for track use only.

Get the Carbotech Bobcats for street use and the and the Carbotech Panther XP's for track use.

thats what i wa gonna get when i was gonna order brake pads. I can definately vouch for the XP's on stock brakes too, those things are amazing on the track on long course and short course.

I still have a set of Carbotech Bobcats which I need to install on the STi when the stockers wear down. They are suppose to be a good street/autox brake pad with less dusting (then stock) and rotor friendly.
