If they are for the street hawk hps pads are good, I am about to get a set myself. Mazda pads are too expensive.

Hawk HPS pads are great for street use and are dirt cheap from the Tire Rack (www.tirerack.com , in case you don't know about it). I would recommend the HP+ for occasional track use if you can stand the slightly increased dust, noise, and rotor wear.

The thing thats good about the bonez ones are that they dont make to much noise and theres not that much dust put out to by them. There a good street/track pad.
