Default What brake pads to go with Teraflex Big Rotor Kit ?

I just received my front rotor kit and then placed a pre-order for the yet-to-be-released rear kit.

What is the current recommendation for brake pads? The kit uses factory pads but I'm not sure what brand/grade to go with?

I want to avoid any of the ones that create unusually high amounts of brake dust.

I'm upgrading solely for purpose of on-road panic stops.

Thank you in advance for your recommendations.

I had Black Magic on my stock brakes and they were awesome but my wheels were black within an hour of washing them. I have Hawk LTS now and they seem to be a happy medium.

I used hawk HPS. Only been on 2 days and I haven't really had a chance to test them out in a hard stop situation, but I did a bit of reading and that's where I came out.

Just another data point for you to consider. One thing I found in researching is that everyone thinks theirs Is the best.
