Okay so i did some research and im getting multiple opinions. There's people that say some pads are really good and some say that they make noise or watever. I just want peoples opinions on pads they have experience with and what they prefer. I have to change my pads soon (in about 2 weeks) and i might go with stoptech or rotora rotors but undecided with pads.

I want some that are noise free. I hate pads that make noise when you break, it makes my car feel like its a piece of s***.
 
i know i cant have em perfect but i would like to have no a lot of dust meaning less then the stock and somewhat close to no noise..
 
i have the hawk hps in the front. very low dust (lest build up than the rear stockers) and no noise. just make sure you grease the **** out of those pads :)
 
I've got the Rotora's in front and back. Low dust, very quiet, but my only complaint is a bit of a soft feel in the pedal particularly when the pad is cold.
 
right now.. my 2 options are going to be rotora and hawks. I'm wanting the hawks but i heard that they make noise and havent heard much bout the rotora thats why i want you're guys opinion
 
Used Hawks on my Protege...great bite, a little bit of noise if it was cold, but very little dust overall.

Check out Tri-Point, I believe they're having a sale on Hawk pads right now.
 
check out a company called carbotech....been running them for street/autocross and they are insanely good. they have great initial bite, never fade even after constant high speed stops . only drawback is they dust a lot more than i would like but thats usually the tradeoff u make for high performance brakes. the ones im using are the bobcats just incase you go look at them ....they have about 8 compounds to choose from.....ranging from mild to race only and they cost me less than the hawks.
