I'm running Hawk HPS pads on my car. They seem to work well in everyday driving.

Type in "ebay2u" to login and get them at wholesale price which includes shipping. I don't think you'll beat their price.
I just checked and $125 shipped for front and rear HPS.

Remember that the pads might not be the problem. Have you flushed your brake fluid? That should be the first line of denfense and then look at the pads. The street pads are pretty good for everyday drivers, even spirited ones.
good luck.
