Brake pad options(large collective list)

So, after a search here it seems that there wasn't a good collected reference of most/all of our brake pad choices. On other forums I've been on had this and thought it would act as a good living document for the members to see what's all out there and make an informed decision on pads for our cars.

Each manufacturer listed had the part numbers on their site, and they are copied here. I chose not to post prices, as they will vary based on who you choose to buy from and I didn't want to step on vendor toes if any wanted to offer discounts/group buys in the future.

As an added note, if you find something that's not listed here, PLEASE message me, and I'll try to seek out the info and add it to the list here. I made this to be a good reference, and I think I covered most of the common stuff, but there's bound to be options I didn't find/ overlooked in my postings.

Also, I didn't include the factory pads, as those are a known entity at the dealerships...

now, to the list....

A small sidenote with Hawk compounds. If you call them, they can get you any compound they make on your pad shape(even if it's not listed). Usually what's listed is the common applications or what they feel is the most applicable pads for each pad shape.

I really liked my EBC yellowstuff at the track, held up very well 0 fade and great stopped performance (vehicle weight around 3000 w/2 people in it) stoptech slotted rotors (both front and rear)

For the sake of future reference, because this is a great OP, the EBC Redstuff pads are seemingly not available any more for Fiestas, at least in the UK/Europe. I've tried ordering from multiple retailers - and even direct from EBC's own web shop - and they are simply not listed as an available part.

The best I could achieve was Redstuff rear pads from Andrew Page, no front pads available - that's probably just because their supplier has some old stock. I guess they weren't a popular enough fitment size to make it worth manufacturing the pads for Fiestas.
