you have to find the pad u like
it all depends on your driving styles
since you have cross drilled rotors your pad will wear faster so you can experiment more

both those are two of the best. Hawk's are swEEt, and MM's grip nice as well. Go with one of those.

i used ebc red stuff on my eclipse and they kick ***! they only last about 15k miles but well worth it. i don't know if they are available for the 240. if they are they are my favorite pad.

really? that's the first negative response i've heard about them. if u don't mind, tell us why they suck (so others may not make a poor buying decision)?

ebc greens aren't that great. they are ok. only a minor upgrade. the redstuff are nasty, but like i said i don't even know if they make them for the 240
