IMO, Hawk pads are total crap. I ran them on my '01 Type-R on the street and track; they were horrible. My personal experience, unless you are tracking the car, stick with the OEM pads. I'd say the same of rotors.

If you are looking for some high performance pads for street and light track use, take a look at Porterfield R4-S (http://www.porterfield-brakes.com/pads.html ). They make pads for '04 and older TLs, but can also custom make for newer models, so I imagine a '07 is no problem.

FYI for everyone on here,
Manual 6sp Accords Have Brembo front calipers.

Same part numbers as the 2004 TL.

front brembos and clutch kits also.
