Default My experiences

I have ran Axxis Metalmaster, Deluxe, Ultimate, EBC, Bendix, Raybestos, no name brand ceramic, TRD ,others I cannot remember, and my current Hawk HPS on Supra brakes. I would stay well away from the Axxis pads and spend a little more for the better stuff. Ultimates brake ok but the dust is extreme. Deluxe fades easily and Metalmasters are noisy,dusty, and still fade. I would also avoid Bendix, Raybestos, and no name brands. EBC's worked ok on my stock brakes though nothing great ( Supra folks despise them though I have not run them with my new setup). TRD's wear very fast and the dust is extreme, not too mention noisy, but brake ok. Hawks are a good compromise with a little more dust than stock. Porterfields are supposed to be the best street/light track on the market but are very expensive. I have a set on order to replace my current Hawks so I shall see. I am sure others will chime in with their experiences.
