I've bought StopTech rotors and Hawk HPS pads several times in the past and was completely happy with them.

For a high quality low dust performance street pad I would recommend the Carbotech 1521 100% made in the USA. Non-corrosive dust will not harm your wheels or paint. You can order on line at http://ampdautosport.com/brake-pads/corvette/ or call me at 216-780-8825. The part numbers you need are front CT731 and rear CT732 . Use promo code z28 at check out to receive your forum discount. As far as rotors get some quality Centric premium rotors.

The Carbotech Bobcat 1521™ is our high performance street compound that is our most successful compound. The Bobcat compound is known for its awesome release and modulation, along with unmatched rotor friendliness. Like our AX™ & XP™ line of compounds, Bobcat 1521™ is a Ceramic based friction material offering minimal rotor damage and non-corrosive dust. Bobcat 1521™ offers outstanding performance, even when cold, low dusting and low noise with an excellent initial bite. This compound’s virtually perfect linear torque production provides incredible braking force without ABS intervention. Bobcat 1521™ operating range starts out at ambient and goes up to 900°F. Bobcat 1521™ is suitable for ALL street cars, perfect for your tow vehicle, police cruiser. The Bobcat 1521™ compound has been found to last two-three times longer than OE pads you can purchase at a dealership or national retailer. That’s one of the beauties of [color]Carbotech[/color] Ceramic brake compounds. Bobcat 1521™ is NOT recommended for any track use.

Who makes the best ceramic pads? The GM ones are terribly noisy, I need to replace them with something that doesn't squeal so much.

Also look into the PowerStop Z23 or Z26 pads if you are considering GM ceramics or the Carbotech Bobcat's.
