Brake pads STOPTECH or DBA
I went to Stoptech Street pads at 35k miles on the fronts only, took care of the issue after a few bed-in runs. Still no shudder at 75k and original rotors
Pros: took care of issue
Mileage: 120700 km
I have the T2s and the DBA SP Street Performance Brake Pads, the green ones, on 4 corners along with SS brake lines. They have been rock solid since sept of 2022 over 50k miles. Hardly any brake dust compared to Stoptech street semi metallic. They are a great all-round setup, Street and canyons.
Pros: rock solid, little brake dust
Mileage: 50000 km
I'm running DBA Street Performance pads. Low dust and performance seems fine. I'd buy again.
Pros: low dust, fine performance
Grimmspeed MCB, STOPTECH Sport package (pads, rotors, lines) and the GR86 Shock/Strut retrofit.

I have stoptech "performance brake pads" on my front and rear. Feels like OEM but more dusty
Pros: feels like OEM
Cons: more dusty
I've got DBA street performance pads and slotted rotors on my 2018 Outback. Not sure what their availability may be to you, but they carry a good reputation down under.
Pros: good reputation
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
It's a solid pedal feel.
Pros: solid pedal feel
To me it looks like brake pad material on your rotors due to your street pads melting. Slap a new set a cheap pads on there from Autozone or something and drive it for a week or two that material should come off. As long as you don’t have vibration while braking they should still be good. Just make sure to use track pads next time. I personally run StopTech 309 pads because they’re good on track and street
Pros: good on track and street
Cons: street pads melting
Vehicle:
Subaru Impreza WRX
There was a noticable increase in stopping power, but it came with a significant increase in brake dust. They also started squealing recently. I recently checked the pad life and it's been okay. So far I've put 10k on em, and I'm estimating that 1/3 to 1/2 of their life has been used
Pros: increased stopping power
Cons: increased dust, squealing
Mileage: 10000 km
Used to use the DBA XP pads but they were far too dusty.
Cons: far too dusty
Part number: XP
