Brake pads Bendix or OEM Nissan
Reviews
I put some Bendix organic/ceramic pads on my S-10 way back in the day, and the dust was much more manageable. The dust is a lighter color so it's not nearly as obvious. My current car (G35 Coupe) has ceramic pads, and I can tell a big difference compared to my friends' cars. Brake dust always come back slower on my car.
Pros: manageable dust, less obvious
Vehicle:
Infiniti G

The stock breaks on these cars were only just good enough when new, after years of wear and tear the breaks are awful. One slightly aggressive stop and that's it your breaks are done for the rest of the day.
Cons: breaks are awful
Vehicle:
Nissan
I put in some new rear brake pads today. The frist brakes I had were Autozone brand. Well, they went on fine on the driver side. On the passenger side It was near impossible to push the piston back far enough to get the pads on. I still needed about another 1/16th of an inch. I even bled brakes a little to make room for the piston compression. Still no luck. So I went back and bought some Bendix that were about 1/16th less in thickness. So, I put them on the passanger side. I had to wrestle with the piston again - that mofo would not budge. Finally I got it. So, I go for a drive with Albany brakes on one side and Bendix on the other. A horrible scaping erupts from the driver's side. The side that went on much easier. Visual inspection looked ok. So I took them off and they were all scraped to heck. Strange, as that was the easy side. So, I put the Bendix pads on that side and everything is fine.
Pros: Bendix pads fit
Cons: Albany pads too thick
Mileage: 120000 km
