Brake pads Akebono or DBA
Akebono is the original equipment manufacturer of brake pads for Honda.
I use Akebono brake pads. Little expensive but it's the best
My wife's Cabriolet has Akebono pads, front and rear. Pedal is firm, stops fine.

Akebono break pads. Thank me later
I run Akebono pads and they barely create any dust compared to oem pads. There is less of an initial bite when braking though
Akebono ceramic pads. 99% of the dust is gone.
I run the Akebono ceramic pads and they helped a lot.
The brake pads you use make a huge difference. I had a Mustang before I bought my 340i that was insanely dusty, so I switched to ceramic pads and it’s made a massive difference. I’ve used them ever since. My car is mostly a garage queen who sees a back road on rare days when the sun is just right, so they’re perfect for me.
I had Akebono ceramics on my first GX, have OEM on my current ride. OEMs may offer a slightly better pedal feel but are much dustier (Akebono didn't dust at all). No real difference in stopping power, so overall it's probably a wash.
