Installed last March. Have put roughly 2,000 miles on them. Not a squeal or squeak out of them. Put new rotors on with install of these pads. So far so good.

John sells Axxis "performance organic" and "ceramic" - to which you are both referring? I'm curious because we stopped selling any organic ones a long time ago and now only sell ceramic.

Yes, mine were in the blue box too. So I guess they were the organic.
Organic pads are great for brake rotor life, however they typically suck for the purposes of stopping the car. They heat up fast, don't work well, easily glaze and they wear fast.
You want Asbestos pads. If you can't fine those, Semi-metalic or ceramic will do.
