pads: i'd just really prefer oem pads. but my priorities are: 1. long lasting 2. bite 3. quiet 4. dust

fluid: whatever oem fluid is.

btw, im looking to purchase these pads now, im not just "shopping for prices"

BTW, OEM sucks, they are dirty, noisy and don't stop all that great IMHO. I much prefer my Hawks, and if we're talking brakes, never go cheap - this is your life we're talking about.
