Best brake pads for WJ front calipers and caddy rear calipers??

[Safari Ary]

I FINALLY got my WJ(knuckles/calipers/rotors) stuff in, and I'm preparing for the swap. I've also got a TSM kit here for my 8.25 which uses caddy rear calipers(w/ integrated parking brake). Anyway, I've always skimped on brake pads in the past and I want to reap all the possible benefits from these mods, so what are the best/most effective pads on the market?? I'm willing to splurge a little or put up with a little faster wear, but I wanna be able to STOP. Thanks

P.S. Runnin 33s for reference

i've always run Performance Friction pads on my disks. they are carbon metallic pads. they are around $30 for a set of fronts, a little more than the rest, but i absolutely love 'em.

Unsure on the pads, but I am curious as to how much this whole conversion costed you. And how much work is involved. I'll be going to 33s next, and hate my 8.25 drums..

If NAPA has the pads for your application...ask for the "severe duty" series. Very high quality...and last a long time with very excellent stopping capabilities...best I have personally seen in wet conditions...they are some sort of powdered metal material.

I have a set of PF pads on the front of my XJ...NAPA was out of stock and i didn't want to wait...the PF pads are smooth and quiet and adequate for stopping power...but IMHO not as good as the NAPA pads.
