lookin into getting new front brakes which do people rate the highest looking at black diamond drilled + grooved discs + b.d predator pads

size either 256 with braided hoses
or 288 redrilled to 4 stud with braided hoses
really looking for compromise between both stopping power and brake feel
will be going on 1.6 sport
opinion and input welcome
cheers adz
