Eh! Maybe you could do a search and find numerous recommendations on pads, rotors, and brakelines!

the green stuff works ok with the stock rotors. although they are advertised as non-dusting, they do dust and they do more so than the oem pads. the stopping power is greater than the oem pads, but i think they can generate more heat, becasue of more friction, which can leads to rotor warpage. that happened to me, going from the oem to green stuff. i donīt know you driving style/habit so YMMV. i might try the red stuff next because they are formulated for heavier cars.

oh, green stuff pads cost about 90 bucks for the front pair.

DRM600, wouldn't the Red Stuff pads be even worse than the Green Stuff pads on the rotors?

Green Stuff is for lighter cars and Red STuff only comes in the rear. Also, 90 buck for the front is ripped off. I seen it for about $126 shipped for both front and rear. Finally, there better ones and for about the same price too.
