Pagid
Brembo
Mintex
Etc
Just avoid the cheap and nasty stuff, it'll just squeal like a pig

I've been running EBC discs and pads front and back for about 7 years and they are very good brakes, not cheap but good.

I've got GD Sport discs and yellow stuff pads, stopping power is unreal, I think the Green stuff pads with the matching discs are more than enough though.

Pagid brakes from euros I've used for years and are good quality that some manufacturers fit from the factory
