I know the title sounds kinda silly but my friend is looking for a pad that will work well on his LS1 swap car. Car is not a track car but gets driven very hard, the stock pads already struggle durring really aggressive driving and with the added weight and speed of the LS swap he is looking for race pad performance that will still work on the street. I had first thought hawk HPS but they don't work well after they heat up. HP+ seems like it would be a good choice but sounding like a school bus while you stop isn't that fun. So what are you guys running?

I run the PFC06's on my track car and they take a couple hard stops to heat up, just something to consider. Really good pad for the track but dont know how they would be on the street.
I ran the HP+ on my subaru all year around, on and off the track and found them to be the perfect dual-purpose pad. You get used to the squealing lol

I have Hawk HPS I pads and like them a lot. They do get squeaky for a while after they get hot (aka a track day) and are really dirty pads but they work alright in town but they work awesome on the track."She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid.
