Brake pads Hawk Performance or Duralast
Did all brakes and rotors with top duralast gold and heavy duty ceramic pads- maybe 600
I run hawk hps pads on my NA. They've held up to entry level track work and not made much noise on the street. Feel fine when I choose to drive the Miata to work.

Just switched from Stoptech street pads + stoptech drilled and slotted rotors to zimmerman cross drilled rotors with hawk hps5.0 pads. Must say I like my Zimmerman + Hawk setup a lot.
I have been running Hawk HPS 5.0 front and back since my 2019 Stinger GT. Put them on my G70 within the first 500 miles to save the rotors. They do squeak a bit, but they stop without fail and after 35k on my Stinger, never once did I get any vibration on braking.
Hawk hps ceramic pads
+1 on the hawk hp+. Fantastic pad
I run hawk hp+ for street and track use
Get some Hawk HP+ pads and you’ll restore the balance.
They’re noisy and nasty and will ruin the wheel finish, but they grab hard.
I ran Hawk DTC60's for one event. They dust like crazy which isn't the end of the world by itself, but if the dust touches any moisture at all (like the rainy track day) it mixes into what I can only describe as ferrous concrete. So not only is the dust-crete impossible to remove by any normal means, it then rusts like crazy, turning whatever wheels you have into a runny orange mess. I tried multiple different wheel cleaners, multiple brushes, soaking, anything and nothing could get it off. I had to use scotch brite and scuff the hell out of the wheels to get it off. Fortunately I run cheap TRM wheels and it's a track-only car otherwise I would have been livid.
