Default Brake pads for 37's???

Im about to do a Rock Krawler 2.5" Max Travel Lift on my 07 and Im going to be running 37's. I know im going to need better stopping power and am looking for some advise on what brake pads to use to help with that. What do you guys use with your 37's???

Default My brake plan...

I too rock 37s and I decided to go this route:

Stainless, extended brake lines up front
Aggressive pads
OEM rotors
Grand Cherokee master cylinder

I too run 37's on my JKU. Have for over 60K miles. I have the 6spd manual so I'm sure that helped but I ran the stock ones with no issues. Once they wore out I replaced all for corners with crossdrilled/slotted rotors and ceramic powerstop pads. Got off ebay for about $210.00. They work great, no problems with stopping power and for that price, even if I have to replace every 30-40K miles it is still cheap.

Hawk or EBC are both good options.
