Default Brakes

I need new brakes.

I was washing my car the other day and noticed my pads are due for replacement soon. I currently have Axxis Ultimates on there right now and I have been very satisfied with them except for them being harsh on the rotors and dusting like mad.

I have done a little research and came to these conclusions about potential pads:

AEM: Not much of an improvement over stock performance-wise, light dust, made by Nissin, $$$.

Axxis Ultimates: What I have now, super dust, harsh on rotors, great stopping power, low noise, I can get a full set for $70

EBC Greenstuff: Junk, don't bother.

Hawk HPS: I am hearing good things, low dust, excellent stopping power, moderate on rotors, $$$.

I want to get a set of decent pads for $100 or less. What do you guys recommend and where would I find a good deal on a full set?
