Default Need Brake Pads

I was wondering does anyone have any suggestions on brake pads I'm looking for a pad that doesn't produce alot of brake dust and isn't to expensive i don't need a super good pad because i don't track my car i do mostly normal driving and occasional street racing. Also if anyone has any pads just sitting around the house they are wanting to get rid of please give me a pm or write on this thread so that i can take them off of your hands thanks.

I have Akebono ceramic. They're a bit more expensive than the semi metallic stuff but I get zero brake dust, they're quiet, and ceramic usually lasts longer.

I concur. I love my Hawks. Cleanest pad I've ever used, good gripping power as well.

A $110 shipped, that's crazy. Get at pep boys for $65. I would also pick up some high temp grease too. And yes that is Hawks HPS part #HB268F.665. That is the Hawks part number to double check. Now that I think the Brembo's HPS might cost that much though.
