It's been about a year since I've owned my G and I was thinking about upgrading my rotors.

While my OEM rotors are okay, my pads are due for a change and I figured I could upgrade to slotted rotors and start fresh. I was wondering what pads should I pair with slotted rotors?

Sedan with non-sport brakes.

Hawk pads aren't a bad choice and are a decent price, I've had good luck with those work really well.

why not pair with stop tech pads

Stoptech pads they sell a complete kit. Rotors pads guide pins and plate.

When I was running the stoptech pads (the ones that are now called "sport" pads) they performed well, but they will dust quite a bit. Need to be sure to properly bed-in the pads but they do have good bite.
Ken over at KNS brakes says the new "street" pads from Stoptech are just re-boxed Centric Posi-quiets so those shouldn't be considered a performance pad FWIW.

awh damn looked at actual pics of them they do look jus like the stop tech pads i had. damn here i am thinking i got extra performance with the stop techs. oh well they perform great tho and both cost about the same

The newest Stoptechs are labeled as either Sport, or Street, if you have the new Sport than you have the performance ones, if you have the old Street you have the performance ones, if you have the new Street, you have the Posi Quiets, clear as mud right ???

Here's from the Stoptech site~

That is a nice deal for sure! Wish I knew the old numbers for my rear pads, they're due for a change.
