Honestly, for most if not all street driving I find the Reds great. Zero dust, zero squeal, great bite. Can't complain.

 

Check the caliper slide pins for brake dust, dirt and grit on them (and inside the sleeves they sit in), after 7 or 8 years possibly unchecked they might be a bit mucky and when they get too much crud on them they can seize.
I always remove these pins anyway as part of the pad replacement method, so I clean them off (and the insides of the sleeves) and apply a very light coat of brake grease to them. Some say you shouldn't grease the slide pins as that will just attract dust and dirt but I have greased them for 30 odd years and never had a problem. Make sure you use proper hi-temp ceramic brake grease though.
Also apply the same brake grease to the backs of the new pads and any place where the pads contact the caliper, eg right on the ends of the pads.
Last but not least, check the backs of the rotors for wear not just the fronts, you might be surprised how much more the backs are worn compared to the fronts.
The theory is that the backs of the rotors (and the inner pads) wear a lot quicker than the fronts and the outer pads as the brake pistons bear directly on the backs but only indirectly on the fronts. Whether or not this theory is correct I have always found more wear on the backs than the fronts.

 

 

replace old bushings with nice bright red poly. bushings??? lol...take your calipers to get powder coated?

 

I'd also suggest the reds which work very well on the street

While you have the wheels off - would prob do rotors as well (I like the drilled and slotted look like R1 Concepts). I would spray the calipers (I found high temp brake/caliper paint to be excellent / did mine 3-4 yrs ago and still perfect)

Beyond that it's pretty quick and easy to spin off the wheels and brakes so not sure there is a lot more to do at the same time

 

Give all the suspension joint dust boots a once over, if any are torn get a plan together to replace them. Jag uses quality joints but the dust boots tend to tear.
