avoid greenstuff stuff! My personal Opinion.
if you are just doing road driving then I guess greenstuff may be what your after, just dont expect them to cope that well with hard driving. Redstuff take too long to get to temp with normal road driving, and I think they are prone to squeeling.
For a fast road pad (that i've used before) I'd opt for Mintex Extreme (or 1144) or Ferrodo DS2500.
I cant comment on others as I havent used them.

I've got standard 288mm discs with mintex pads.
Can't fault them even if they do leave your wheels manky after a spirited drive
