Pagid does a ton of advertising and offers a pretty good product. Raybestos does very little advertising but can be found in the calipers on a lot of pro race team cars in the winners circle. Worth a test drive.
While I'm probably not saying something that you don't already know - but the pad transfer problems were due to the existing pad material not being compatible with the ST material. I've run into that type of issue before when trying new compounds on existing rotors. This is in part why I tend to only switch pads when I switch rotors. I've had some success is running Hawk Blue pads on totally cold rotors (not on track) as "cleaning" pads since they are a very abrasive compound on other cars.
