Nor do you want pads rated for racing. They chew up the disk, squeal like crazy and don't really work very well until hot.

The ebc reds are a street pad with a ceramic matrix, which makes a lighter colored dust than metal matrix pads, and is easy on rotors. They also have very good cold and hot performance.

The OEM pads are better than most stock pads on other cars and the Boxster is one of the best braking cars in existance so you'll be fine with OEM. But there is a noticeable difference with the EBC pads. You don't have a wrong choice here.
