Default aggressive brake pads options?

this is for frequent spirited drives on street (70-80mph). im looking at pads that offer better bite than my current set that came with the car. i have no idea what they are though. i have blanks front and rear.

i searched and read through the net. and i realize most recommends ebc redstuff but i didnt like the reduced biting performance. with the very limited options, i am down with my shop list below;

hawk hps
hawk hp plus
ebc yellow
pagis r4s

i have only experience using hawk hps on my wrx with brembo. they were good. i have no concerns on the dust or noise.

this is going onto my xf 326mm disc. please ad

I have EBC red stuff on my XF-S. More bite, no squeal, less dust, I love them.

Cheers

I don't have any experience with them on my Jag, but I ran HP+ on my S4 and loved them. Great for track work and aggressive street. They are noisy and hard on rotors though.

i just ordered the hawk hps for the rear to go on my oem disc. and for the front i would be getting High Carbon Alloy Brake Disc by Centric with the brembo/ yellowstuff pads. hope this set would suit my needs
