Use the search function and received 10x more information anyone could post about it. Best? Best for what? Racing, everyday, dual purpose?? Hard to say. And for the heavy maxima, I don't think organics are available.

Axxis Pad Types
Autospecialty brands include Super-Lux, Metal-Lux, Super-X, and Metal-X. Metal-Lux is our premium quality semi-metallic pad featuring an asbestos free formula.

Axxis Metal Master and Axxis Deluxe Plus are the leading brands of pads for upscale European and Japanese sports sedans.
Metal Master pads are designed for applications requiring the highest performance from a semi-metallic pad.
Deluxe Plus is formulated from the latest, proven asbestos-free organic materials, for those applications specifically requiring an NAO formula. It is recognized for maintaining low fade and squeal, with minimal brake dust.
- Metal-Lux and Super-Lux Autospecialty brands are specially formulated pads of the highest quality:
Metal-Lux Premium Quality Semi-Metallic brake pads feature a proven asbestos-free formula. Super-Lux is our premium quality, organic non-asbestos formula pad. Super-Lux Premium Quality Organic Pads feature a proven asbestos-free formula. Both Metal-Lux and Super-Lux brand materials meet or exceed OE specification, and include shims where necessary.

The Axxis Deluxe Plus pads are organic, meaning you can throw some in a 3rd (or 4th) gen Max....But I was unimpressed when I ran these with my Powerslot rotors...however many brake changes ago that was...

Re: BTW Jeff,
It's just that I think the 3-gens come stock w/ semi-metallics. So I wouldn't want to use non-semi-metallics when replacing. ?? donno.
