Default Best Brake Pads and best deals?

So the light for bad brake pads came on earlier today, which is shitty because that and a couple other things are chipping away at my funds for a new DP and chip =( Anyways I was wondering where the best place to purchase some low brake dust pads would be..i seen some kevlar ones for $77 and the hawks ones on ttstuff for $98.. i want some high end ones, so i don't have to clean my damn wheels everyday. Any suggestions?

When you find high end pads for cheap, let us all know. That other thread asked exactly the same question you did, but you don't like the answers.

something to again agree on.
i think the amount of money for a full set of hawks is reasonable.
You wont find a "high end" ceramic pad for much less.

yeah, those are what I run

low dust after initial break in and good stopping power
I was thinking about SS lines but decided against them, although I would prefer a stiffer pedal feel. I may do them sometime, if you can get a deal then I would say do everything at once.

PS the rotors look sick... there is a black coating in the slots of the rotors that really make them 'pop'
