Can someone recommend a good non-performance replacement pad for the OEM pads? An upgrade from stock in regards to quality, finish etc... but not performance minded.

I'm not going to purchase performance pads if they're going to squeal like a pig! Thanks!

Akebono Pro Act look good to me. I am thinking of trying them when time comes.

from my understanding the HPS and ceramics are not supposed to be very noisy, but the HP plus pads are.

Those are Ceramic Pads which was suggested NOT to run. If I am going to use Ceramic Pads I will simply go with the EBC Redstuff pads. I have never heard one bad things about EBC Pads
