Getting new Xdrilled rotors. I need pads that won't chew them up.

I am looking for a good Brake pad that won't fade, but won't chew my rotors up at the same time.

Driving conditions: Daily driver, with the occasional 35 minute Canyon runs. I don't want my brakes fading on the last 10 min. =)

For an 87 RX7 turbo II.

Pads. I need brake pad suggestions that won't chew the rotors up, but give great performance at the same time. Better than Pep Boy's Raybestos pads.

Porterfields are very rotor friendly. Carbon/Kevlar compound is what you want. Even the pf slalom/autox pads hardly ever fade.
