Which brake pad to use with Brembo rotors

I just got a set of Brembo rotors and I'd like to know what kind of pads to use with them.

Any suggestions / comments would be appreciated.

Your going to find that most people will recommend the Axis MetalMaster to use with the Brembo X-drilled rotors. I myself went with the Axis MetalMaster and PowerStop slotted rotor combination.

I have the axxis poads on my x-drilled, they grip hard at high speeds but seem to lag a little on the low end. If I slam on them at 15mph they stop me quick, but going from 125-0 mph takes a while especially in the last few mph.

I've heard Porterfields are great. They're really gentle on the rotors too. Just got a set last week

I use raybestos quiet stop

I know what you guys are gonna say, but supposedly they dust less, and I am sick of washing my wheels. Just put the rotors and pads in yesterday.
So far so good.
