Need Brake Pad Suggestions!

So, I've got the Stoptech Street pads on the front of my '11 sedan. Not really a fan, aside from the high temp performance - noisey, poor release feel, tons of dust.

I just ordered the Hawk 5.0 for the rear, but they don't make them for the front (320mm/307mm).

Suggestions on front pads to replace the Stoptechs? I heard today that the Hawk HPS work well on the g35/37, and better than on other cars. But can seem to find anything I'm in love with.

Thanks!

I'm still on original pads on my '11 sedan Sport (34k miles) and I think the OE Akebono pads are fine. No experience with the single-pot brakes. Hawk HPS were the only pads that felt powerful in my Dodge Dakota. Dusty, though. OE and Porterfield felt like wood blocks even with a good bedding.

I used Akebono on my last car...plan to replace these with Akebono's again. Good pads, good stopping power, minimal dust and noise
