For street manners but still functional for autocross purposes I liked the Hawk HPS 5.0.
Low dust brake pads. On my F87, I use Carbotech 1521. Slight decrease in initial brake bite, significant decrease in dust.
I run Hawk HPS which have reduced dust as compared to the factory OE Brembo pads. They are quiet enough too.
Hawk HP 5.0 was a decent enough upgrade for my tuned S5 and still perfectly fine for street use for my first few track days.
I use the XP10s on track. Highly recommend them. Since you don’t even have the Z51, likely the XP10s will be more than enough for you.
I track a WRX and have used XP12's in the front and XP10's in the rear. They work very well. IMO Carbotechs are one of the best for the track
Carbotech and dont look back, many proven won championships and leading modular pedal feel. I run them and love them !
Hawk pads brake great but they will eat your rotors and they are some of the dustiest pads.
I use carbotech xp8s. Dtc 60 or 70s would also be a good choice. Be warned through track pads driven on the street will accelerate rotor wear. I hated the Ferodo ds2500s when cold.
I tried Hawk HP+ dual use but they were exactly as people warned. Worst of both worlds.
