I can live with a little more dust and noise.
HP+, but don't just run them in the back, that will give you rear brake bias, which is unstable. ABS will help, but still IMO it's a bad idea. Match the front and rear pads.

In some cases rears can heat up *quicker* anyway. Smaller pads, smaller rotors, less airflow.
