Default Brake Pad opinions: Ferodo or Hawk...or....

Looking for opinions on pads please:

Ferodo DS2500
Hawk HPS Plus (Stree/track)
Hawk HPS Street

Or, anyone else have suggestions??

Running Alcon B-type 4pot calipers w/ Pagid Blues-little to noise for my taste- like the feel of the pad- but I don't track my car- so I am looking for some other suggestions.

Thanks

I think you'll probably be happy either way, I'm trying Ferodo next (then I'll have first hand exp)

Default If the Blues are too noisy stay away from HP+. HPS are worse performers than Blues.

I'm on my third set of Blues, and will replace them with the DS2500 in an effort to gain a little more performance without the noise and rotor wear of the HP+.
