From what I've gathered, AEM pads for our cars are Nissin pads, which are OEM Honda pads.

I have a set of Hawk HPS on my car and I love them. They seem to chew up rotors, which doesn't really fix your problem, but I'm almost 100% sure my car has Advance $11 specials. Brembo blanks are a much better buy. Powerslots are up there as well, but I prefer blanks.
