Been doing some research and debate myself. Come to the conclusion I would stick New Edge brakes in there. V6 and GT got the same brake package, and it's pretty robust, easy to find, and cheap. Remember it's designed for a 3000+ lb car and you're going to a 2400 lb car, so it's already overbraked, and being light it'll be easy on its consumables.
My stock OEM pads are Ferodo DS2500 and I love them for daily and light track days.
I settled on a new set of four Yokohama Advan Sport + A/S tires in 255/40/19 with a 55K mile warranty.
My last experience from them was a yellow top from 2015 that I got for my '01 Mustang. Had it for 4+ years starting up just fine and survived despite having been drained dead 5 times or so. Sold the car before the battery died.
I'm on the second summer for the General Gmax RS that got installed on our 2014 Mustang and honestly for the price i couldn't be happier. They are quiet, grippy and great in the rain.
I replaced the stock fluid with Mobil 1 full synthetic ATF in my ‘07 GT and it shifted much nicer post change.
I will say that I've had a really good experience with the pirelli pzeros that I have on mine, they're super grippy.
So I don't work for Raybestos but I do install a ton of them. Those EHT are really good for normal vehicles. The price is right, dust is low, pedal feel is great, friction is about on par with OEM and in some cases better. They will survive about 10-15 medium effort stops, and about 3-5 Hard ABS stops. I wouldn't put them in anything bigger than a 7-Seater V6 Crossover, and the weight of those is on the limit of what the pads can do, but over all very good.
We used to use the P Zero Nero as they came on our mustang but they just didn't have the traction we wanted...We replaced them with RIKEN RIKEN RAPTOR ZR tires @ about $100 each (raw tire)
The Riken handle better on blacktop, although it's no super sticky tire but the front end doesn't plow near as bad.
The summer tires on my Mustang lasted a whole 12k miles - but they were staggered so they couldn't be rotated and were the worst tire ever put on at a factory (Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercars).
