Default Pads Help!!!

I have a 2004 base 350z and I'm looking for some good pads. need to be good for street with NO screech and NO dust.

This are the 3 I have in mind....

Ferodo DS-2500
Hawk HPS
Nismo R-Tune

Which one do you guys think I should get? Or should I go to Auto Zone and buy some pads? Are the AutoZone pads any good? Thanks for any help!!

I have the HPS and theres no screeching and no dust. I think the ferodo are a step up from the hps's and will have a bit of dust, and possibly some screeching, idk about the nismo ones. I know theres a huge thread on brake pads thats a sticky somewhere, try searching

Hundreds of threads on this since 2003. There is not a lot more to discuss. Are you going to buy the first pad that someone tells you in this thread?

No pad is dust free.

Your urgent help could have been more quickly addressed by... Captain Search.

Good luck finding a no dust pad.

Will the Hawk HPS HB370F.559 fit my Base Z? The HB180F.560 are for cars with Brembo only right?

Eihter way there will be some dust. Just how much. I had Hawk HPS on my stock brakes and loved them so much to also put them on my BBK

probably one of the only drawbacks of having a white car.
I feel like I was my car and I take it to the gas station and the whole rear is already covered in brake dust hah
