Which Pads for 2K2 GLE with PowerSlot Rotors?

I'm getting ready to order some PowerSlot front rotors from Nopi, and it's time to replace/upgrade my pads as well. Wondering what people would suggest as a good match to these rotors.... Should I go with the Axxis Ultimates fro Nopi? OEM? Ceramics?

I know that there are probably a lot of opinions out there, but I don't mind hearing them, especially from anyone with a 2K2 GLE with the same rotors!

Thanks!

Whatever you choose, dont use Hawk Pads. I bought Powerslots with Hawks and they squeal to no end.

IIRC, some guys on the org were saying that the best pads are OEM Nissan pads.

I have Porterfield on stock rotors and they are a vast improvement over stock.

i have the exact same car as this guy, only blue. i put powerslots on the front with hawk street/sport, (or whatever they're called. not the race pads) and they squeak at every light. they feel better than the stock setup i had before, though.
