if you do a quick search of the forum there are lots of recommendations to suit various needs.

for a daily driver, a quality package of Centric premium blanks and Akebono ProACT pads is a solid combo.

rockauto almost always has great pricing and there is a discount code on here if you search for it.

If you're in the market I would not recommend Centric's Pos-Quiets pdas. I bought them based on positive reviews and how it felt "OEM". However, they are far from that feeling because they lack the stopping power the OEM pads had. The bright side of these pads is that they dust less and are relatively quiet but if you're looking for stopping power these are not it.

My next set will probably be a set of the Akebono ProAct's or Akebono Performance Pads because they are the main supplier for OEM pads for many vehicle manufacturers.

I hope this helps your purchase decision.

you should post this in the review folder, always best to have a consensus that people can go by and this is valuable info. I've been one to recommend the posi-quiets, but this was based on all the reviews that I read so

It's a shame Hawk doesn't make the HPS 5.0 for all Infiniti models as they seem to be getting the most consistent top reviews from all I've read.

I would stay as close to OEM as possible. It's the best combo for stopping power and minimum dusting.

Depends on your budget. EBC, POwerstop and Centric for the rotors. About the pads, I recommend Akebono and Hawk.
