what brake pads are you using?! looking for performance pads

[sr20det]

I am looking for front brake pads for my wife's 05 limited, I would like a high temperature pad because she does a lot of stop and go driving. She also stops late which drives me nuts! I have tried to teach her to drive differently, but she is a woman.. I have just been using higher temp pads and a high quality brake fluid (motul 600 or ate)

I typically use Hawk HPS, Axxis Ultimates or Carbotech Bobcats. These are all high performance street pads.. Since our brake pads are a newer size, Hawk and Axxis do not have pads our for our cars (906a pad size). Carbotech DOES have pads for our cars, but are quite pricey, $127 for fronts. I was just interested in what others are running...

Funny you mention these pads. I ordered them last night from rockauto.com... Along with a pair of centric rotors, 3 wix oil filters and a gates serpentine belt.

I also bought an AFE pro dry s air filter from autoanything.com, I was going to get a k and n, but didn't want oily MAF problems.
