I put motorcraft brand pads on my car (same as stock, mind you. I don’t know what OP is on about). Car brakes exactly the same. Same feel, same distance, everything.
Owner reviews for brake pads
I’ve used EBC HH pads on front and rear for years they’re awesome for street. I would never get organic ever again, tried them once and as expected they have very soft bite but most importantly they wore out completely in a couple months, waste of money
They'll absolutely be ok to use for the street. In fact, most supersports come with oem HH sintered pads.
They may wear a little quicker, but you'll get better stopping power and you should certainly feel a difference.
I recently changed the pads on my 600RR to the EBC HH sintered pads and I'm really happy with how they feel.
I'm running the JURID pads, too, and I'm at a little over 13k miles. No issues whatsoever...
Overall, the brakes feel pretty solid just from rolling it around in my driveway, but the car hasn't been on the road yet as it's not registered/inspected.
I have custom drilled rotors and Stoptech/Centric Posi-Quiet pads combined with Stoptech SS lines on my LS430. I'm very happy with the combo but I would not recommend those rotors if you're looking for longevity. I would stick with regular blanks or slotted only if you really want that stopping power and longevity.
Brakes are good
There are more choices now for aftermarket pads for the RS. The RS Brembo calipers use a distinct pad shape that isn't common. A lot of guys use Mountune, or EBC. Race Tech, the US Brembo Distributor, has TS20 (track/street) front and rear pads that have better performance and less dust that the stock pads.
They are absolutely not track pads. They fill this awkward in-between in which they have the coefficient of friction and modulation of good aggressive street pads but also dust and make tons of noise in street usage.
From my personal experience with the hawk hps pads, stay away from them. Absolutely garbage past normal operating temperatures. They were however quiet and low dust.
