Hawk HP Superduty. HUGE improvement over the awful stock pads (awful = no pedal feel, long stopping distances, etc).

At the end of hunting season I came down out of the mountains on a steep logging road with my trailer. I may have heated the brakes a bit too much. I haven't checked them yet but they don't seem to stop was well. If they are glazed, I guess getting new ones would be best. I have been very happy with the OE brakes so far. If I did over heat them it was my own fault. Any other good replacements other than the OE and the Hawk HP?

104,000+ on my original pads but I rarely tow and when I do its under 8k. I will say they have at least that much left on them as it stands right now.
