Need New Brake Pads
Hey guys can anyone please recommend me some good brake pads? My stock ones are completely burnt out and are causing my rotors to warp. So I'm looking to get some better performing pads.
My cars' a 2008 Fit sport. I'm looking for better performance, but doesn't need to be godly because I still want a nice quiet noise level close to stock. I've heard Hawk's are good.
Any recommendations and where to buy would be really great.
Thanks!

I currently run Hawk HPS on my integra with NSX caliper conversion, no complain, but i still get dust issue. I've tried PRB Ultimate and PRB Metal before, still getting tons of dust.
I like Hawk HPS over PRB Ultiamte, since it seems to have just SLIGHTLY LESS brake dust... but that could be my imagination lol.
I got my stuff from http://importrp.com price is not bad.

not sure if the gd oem rotors are the same exact as the ge but i warped my rotors around 15k miles doing a down hill mountain pass run (cooked rotors and boiled fluid, no brakes for good 1min).
replaced the rotors with fremax made black label high carbon rotors and ebc green stuff. they work great with minor squeal once in a while in low speed situations but other than that they have great initial bite and more stopping power overall.
stay away from ebc green stuff if you want to keep your wheels clean. owners of gunmetal or flat black wheels i would highly recommend because you wont be able to detect the dust on your dark wheels.

anything on hawk ceramic pads? the ebc green stuff is pretty expensive roughly 88. I dont mind dust, but i do for squeal. i prefer minimal to no squeal.
the hawk ceramic pads say ultra low dust and quiet performance with of course the quality of ceramic pads. and for 60ish, it doesnt seem that bad of a price for what theyre saying.
btw my fit is a 2008 with 80,xxx miles. all stock brake pads and rotors. and now when i drive i get the metal rubbing/scratching sound from my rotors. lol... not to mention atm im on 10k+ oil sadly
