Brake pads TRW or DBA
I have these exact pads. HUGE improvement.
Pros: huge improvement
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
Io ho messo le pastiglie TRW Dtec Cotec al posteriore e mi trovo bene le metterò anche davanti appena posso , me ne hanno parlato bene anche per quanto riguarda polveri e residui
Pros: good performance, low dust

I would recommend the TRW ultra pads from the official ZF store on eBay. $50 total for front and rear. They’re a tier 1 oem supplier, and the ultra line is their premium aftermarket offering. Similar to akebono and the pro act line which isn’t available for the 4th gen. The solid Bosch rotors would be a good choice. Centric as well.
Pros: premium aftermarket, good choice

I upgraded my brakes. I went with TRW ultra ceramic pads, Zimmermann front rotors, brembo rear rotors, and it was definitely a big upgrade. The brakes no longer feel spongy, much better overall feel, and less brake dust.
Pros: better feel, less dust
Cons: spongy brakes
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
