Default Brake pads...

Well it's time to change them, going to do front and rear pads. What do you reccomend, just stock, or is there something better?

I've tried just about everything. I like the Ferodo pads the best. Here's the order in which I would rate the most common brake pads.

Ferodo
DP
SBS
EBC
OEM Stock
Galfer
Goldfren

Do you have to argue over stupid pointless shit on the Internet?
