XP12s should work well enough.
Never hear about needing to match tire cohesion with pad/rotor friction. I had the issue of brakes exceeding tire friction on my big brake C5... Modulating the silly aggressive pad with 200TW tires was a challenge. PS4S and OEM is a good pairing, but then your move to Blue Stuff pads, or something more aggressive and the PS4S seem to fall off quicker as you ask more of them. Then on to Cup2, and the domino effect continues.
