Wilwood has many different compounds in heir pads. The vehicle that I put EBC red stuff pads on also had wilwood calipers with their "street" pads. I noticed a huge difference.
You might be at the limit with the 72 calipers ( I assume that's what you have) and those big tires. When I did my Blazer, I used bigger rotors and 2003 dual piston calipers, and I'm also running 33's. It stops on a dime.
