Are you fading the stock pads? If not, there is absolutely no reason to upgrade.

I consider the HPS a downgrade, while the HP+ is probably too aggressive of a pad; everyone I know who tried them who doesn't track or have a way to bed them properly hates them because they squeal like a pig being slaughtered.

I agree with Mike about the HP+, I've only heard how much of a pain they are and that they are really only intended for track use. I've used HPS pads on the other hand and I thought they were great. They were an improvement on my subaru over stock and were nice and quiet.

The thing with the HP+ is that they're not suitable for track use beyond a first or second day; their MOT is too low. Tis the nature of a compromise pad...

That should work. B-force if you want a little more bite. Be sure to turn your rotors if you swap brands/pads, or purchase new rotors.
