Ceramics are the way to go, IMO. That said, there are "good" ceramics and "cheap" ceramics on the market these days, so it's best to stick with a good name brand. I prefer Akebono Ceramic pads and I usually get them from Rockauto.com. They come with new hardware and grease. Akebono has been a supplier to Nissan of brakes for decades, so they fit and perform as good as original equipment or better. Raybestos Professional Grade are also very good. I've used Wagner Ceramics and Napa Hybrid Technology and they were both good. I've bought cheap ceramic pads from Advance Auto Parts and they were pretty shoddy and squeaked, but have used their "Platinum Ceramics" and they were pretty good.
