Hawk HPS or EBC Green are two very good options.

Axxis Ultimates are good pads, but they tend to squeal!!

The truth is the stock pads are actually very good.

The truth is the stock pads are actually very good. i agree..had them for 70k+ and they have not faded as much in regards to stopping power... i wanted trd brake pads as well but my toyo dealer inspected my brakes and said i had around 85-90% left on my brakes...wow

The problem I found with stock pads and rotors is that the stock pads fade like a mofo after a series of hard stops. Initial bite is excellent though.
