i put akebono euro pads on the 330. They make some noise, but have great hold. Dont seem to fade either.

Im very happy with them

I have axxis ultimate ceramic, I havent tried the regular axxis pads, but what I have works pretty well. Were a little noisy when I broke them in, but are fine now, and seem to work very well. Had them for at least a year by now im guessing.
