on stock caliper, I recommend these
Girodisc Front rotors
OEM rear rotors
EBC Yellow pad front, rear
SRF Castrol DOT4 brake fluid.
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.

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 ????
Have had EBC Red stuff, Yellow stuff and Blue stuff. My impressions of them are below:
Red stuff - slightly better initial bite than an OEM pad, the same goes for performance at higher temps, however on track they didn’t last more than a couple of laps. Certainly more of a daily/fast road pad.
Yellow stuff - initial bite ever so slightly lesser than the red stuff, probably inline with OEM. However they put up with more abuse at higher temps and rarely gave much brake fade. Bit dustier, would say fast road/occasional track pad.
Blue stuff - initial bite worse than OEM, after a few hard stomps you can feel them waking up. Stand up to track abuse very well. After multiple fast laps on track, I felt it was the discs that were getting too hot, so these pads highlighted I needed brake cooling to keep going. Squeak at low speeds, dusty.
To answer your question, imo there isn’t a situation where blues are more ‘streetable’ than reds, I’d swap them out for reds and if you can, keep blues for the track ????
HTH
Be careful when buying brakes for the Stinger, if you buy anything cheaper than the originals you'll get a nasty judder within a couple thousand miles! I had to replace the disc and pads with EBC Yellow to get rid of it. The judder was awful.
I have personally ran these rotors with EBC HH pads. I blued them on my first track day and swapped to used OEMs before the next. They felt fine as far as bite but the immediate bluing shows they’re not up to any amount of real heat. If I ran them for a track day or two more they surely would’ve faded badly and warped. I don’t recommend them.
