My front brake pads had been squealing recently (not the wear indicator, I still have 2-3 mm of good pad), so during my next trip to the import parts store I picked up a set of Axxis pads for $42. I decidied to spend a bit more and get something better than the generic semi-metalics that were $27. Once I got home and read the box I noticed that these were organic pads. Can good organic pads be beter than cheap semi-metalics pads? The pads I have now (no idea what they are, they came with the car) have a groove down the center that the Axxis pads don't have. Has anyone used Axxis pads? Any recomendations?

The best pads, like the Nissin pads AEM sells, are more than likely al gonna be semimetalic, so they are gonna make noise. Its no big deal.
