Default AWD F-Sport Brake Pads

Well the time has come for me to replace the front pads on my GS. I've used EBC green stuff in the past but they were noisy imo.

What's everyone's favorite pads for our GS??

I have EBC green stuff on my 2013 AWD GS350. I didn't notice any excess noise over stock.

Not great if you're living in cold weather states. They squeak.

Stock rotors or slotted/drilled?

Yeah, those don't have issues. The OE rotors on the other hand don't play too nice with the Akebono's. Good product once warmed up though.
