Default What are the best pads for Brembo blanks?

I have a 96 LX (Automatic - I know I know, it was a gift) And I don't race, but I am an aggressive driver, lot of stop and go.
I already got the Brembo blanks, but I just wanted to know what would be the best pads to get for these. Is it easier to go with OEM?
I already did a search and I don't really want to get into pads that are too noisy or give off too much dust.
I've read that AEM gives off less dust and might work better.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

AEM is good. Axxis gives out a ton of dust!

I've also heard good thinks about Hawks...but those are almost $80 pads. Even for my wagon they're 70 bucks.

Added: Damn, that's not really what I wanted to hear about AXXIS though...I was thinking about getting the Ultimates.

Any ceramic based brake pad set will give you improved brake performance above that of OEM. And they are quiet, and generate low dust.

Axxis Ultimate is ceramic, and gives out a ton of dust. It is true that it is quiet.
