Need some Brake Pads!

Hey guys, newb Maxima owner. Love the car.

I know Hawk brake pads are the best (or so I was told) but I definitely don't have enough money for those, and I wanted to know if anyone could suggest me some cheaper and still good enough brake Pads. It's a 2002 Nissan Maxima GLE.

Thanks!

i got OEM pads and rotors and it feels good to have quality brake parts, nice and quiet and know they are gonna STAY like that for a long time.

Autozone ceramic brake pads work well for me, at around $55 for the front

Forgot to say, with those, I can get the abs to prevent wheel lock on dry pavement where the semi-metallic pads I had before were just too weak to trigger the abs on dry roads.
