Whats the best type of Brake Pads???

With a good balance between performance & cost, what would be the best performance pads for the money???

Looking for...
...good performance that won't chew through the rotors (stock rotors)
...low brake dust (like from ceramic pads)
...around or under $100-125 a set of pads

I've come across several brands, but wanted some customer testimonials as to which they are using/prefer...

Akebono Brake Pads
Axxis Brake Pads
EBC Brake Pads
Hawk Brake Pads

depends on the weather
While the Akebono Euro Ceramics are supposed to be great they have not been out long enough to know everything about them ..... Mintex is extremely popular
