Hawk brake pads were the best one i've ever used.

why not spend a little bit more than just new pads and rotors and upgrade to the 13" brakes from the cobra/bullit/mach1?

way better stopping power.

Another vote for Hawk, get the HPS compound. More than enough performance for the street at a reasonable price.

Agreed... upgrade to Cobra front brakes. It's an easy swap and you will see a huge diff. Either way go with Hawk HPS pads and steel braided lines.
