OEM pads are just fine.

If you don't mind a little squeel, I say Hawk Metallic compound pads are cool.

Welcome.
I run EBC Greenstuffs up front and Hawk HPS in the rear. No squeek and after the initial seating i couldn't be happier.

OEM are not fine they are POS pads. I went with HAWKs all around I liked them and very minimal dust for a change. They do squeel a little but not much at all

Wouldn't make a difference, pads are pads.

I think the difference is my brother tracks his car, and they have been upto much hotter temps. Because at first the pads barely made any noise, then after a day of racing, they were supper loud.

its not always the temps it is the install that makes the squeel. it is preventable., ive seen people with no squeel AT ALL. I had minor some times. Ive seen others where it sounded like the pads were dead they come out of the package with some coating BS stuff your supposed to put on them and if you do it right they will not squeel.

Most dont bother doing it. I didnt

And yes Temps will make them loud as a mofo but it doesnt stay loud after like a day they go back to normal
