Brake pads OEM Honda or Hawk Performance
I have hawk dtc-60. They are cheaper than most race pads, but not super long lasting. No problems with them on the street. They dust like crazy though and the you don't want to leave the dust on wheels you care about. Make sure you wash the wheels when you get home from track.
I have a Camaro SS 1LE (~3800 lbs w/me) and I basically run Hawk 60's on the street and track ( I don't drive on the street much). I also used Carbotech XP12's before. I don't get any brake fade with either one.
I emailed HAWK over two weeks ago. They thanked my for my contact and query, but haven't responded with a suggested product. I've been running their pads on my Mk6R and have been very pleased with the lack of brake dust and the bite of the braking.
HAWK Pads are top notch
Zimmerman rotors and Hawk HPS 5.0 pads on all four corners. Not the first time I've used Hawks like these, but they feel pretty good so far. Using Motul 600 fluid.
I prefer Hawk Truck pads. Been using them on my tree for 20 years. Get good life out of them. Check pad wear. Mine squeak under light braking when dusty.
Hawk Street 5.0 have been better at stopping than stock, lasted over 25k miles with about 60% left, and have dramatically less dusting than stock.
I run stop tech rotors/hawk HP plus pads/motul high temp/and goodrich SS lines on my m coupe and that’s also a great, much less expensive set up.
Seeing what looks like a Prelude wheel, why not just get the OEM honda brake pads? They are acceptable for most daily use, and the brake dust isn't to terrible to deal with
As good as they are I had to stop using them because of the dust. Ruined the clear coat on my rims. Also the noise when coming to a gentle stop
