Brake pads EBC or Centric
I just recently did a EBS red stuff with EBC slotted rotors package deal and I've been super happy. Reduced dust, only a squeak or two when wet/super cold, and bite is much improved.
For added stop on high heat, I use EBC YELLOW STUFF pads.
Yup. Many times. I use centric/raybestos on my race miata and on my dailies. I have been using the powerstop race pads too.

I got ebc yellow stuff pads on my car and they work great. I paired them with vented Brembo discs I can say till now I don’t have regrets
I just slapped EBC Red pads and cross drilled rotors on mine and called it a day. So far that's been serving me well.
I've got a 2022 Sport Prestiege 3.3T AWD with Brembos and was dealing with the rotor vibrations early on. Dealership swapped out under warranty, but you and I have similar driving styles so the vibrations were back in under 5k miles... After a ton of research I decided to purchase EBC BSD rotors and EBC RedStuff. Rotors were out of stock with no lead time so sales rep hooked me up with DBA rotors. Had some issues with the front pads clicking, but EBC gave me a new set under warranty and I love them! I'll echo what all reviews say about dusting though.... even the RedStuff dusts a lot; I'd honestly say there's a bronze dusting over my black wheels most of the time, but my car exterior is normally dirty anyway ????
The pads work great, no fade for me at my skill level, even with a 40 minute session. Also work great on the street, with no noise or issues cold. However, I am using up about 70% of the pad in 2 hours of track driving. Particularly the rear pads, which are wearing noticeably quicker than the fronts.
I'm going to shit on EBC HH. They're popular, easy to get, and somewhat better than OEM. But they suck ass. Every time I need more brake power they fade. Every time I want the brakes to bite they just shrug and I feel like I need to clamp down. Progressive riding? Sure. Emergency braking? Hell naw. Need to cut speed for sharp corners? Good luck. So I've switched to Vesrah and never looked back.
I just had the worst experience with EBC redstuff pads. brand new pads, and the first time i put pressure on them - they fail - badly! overheating within 5 minutes of spirited driving in the mountains.
