If there's one thing we like talking about on this site, it's brakes! Right Dean and Gary?

Overall I've been happy with the Axxis Ultimate pads. They're decent on the street, great for Auto-X and seem to hold up fairly well at track days, although I'm pretty gentle on the brakes at track days. The biggest drawback it that they dust A LOT, and it's sort of an evil, toxic, rusty dust that's carcinogenic to breath (according to the warning on the box).

Although I've contemplated try some other brands for reference sake, I'm planning on sticking with the Axxis Ultimates for this upcoming auto-x season. Also, StopTech seems to like 'em since they come with most their brake kits.

I know Dean's used the EBC Greens on the street and liked them. I've heard stories that they eat rotors though, but I've never used them, so I can't really speak about 'em with authority.
