If your looking for an everyday pad i recommend either Bendix, Wagner Thermo Quiet or OEM. I've never had any problems with these. If your looking for performance then i'm not sure.

Damn those Hawks are really pricy. I was wondering the same thing cause ill need new pads soon too. I was just gunna go with the ceramics from Autozone. Don't know if there frowned upon but i've always heard nothing but good things... I mean is it really worth the extra cash for the other brands?

I agree I have the Pro Ceramics and they rock. You can get them from advanced discount autoparts website shipped to your door with free shipping. Best deal around on them.
