Brake pads Akebono or Bosch
Brembo, bosh and a few others mentioned in another comment are all really good too.
I've bought brake parts on Amazon for probably a decade. Just got Akebono pads for my Type R on their a couple months ago.
I got the Bosche pads. I think they were in a higher category than daily but the front+back together ended up being cheaper then other brands I was looking at. Just make sure you get ones clearly labeled front or back, and Japan built.
I got BREMBO rotors and Bosch quiet cast pads, happy with the purchase.
For the front and rear I got Akebono ProACTs and Brembo rotors for the rear and both are wayyy better than stock in all ways. Quieter, they haven't warped, very low dust after break in compared to OEM, and they have lasted me at least 2x as long.
Akebono pads are awesome. I used to be big on centric rotors but they have change and the quality is not there anymore.
I was very happy with Bosch BP621 brake pads. It had excellent grip.
I Used akebono in the front and wagoners on the rear. No issues so far.
Go for Akebono Euro spec. I got Akebono for a BMW and it was brilliant, the Akebono ceramic for Genesis was trash.
About a year ago I bought some Akebono ceramic brake pads for my 2016 and they have given me nothing but grief, notably the fronts whose retainer clips just straight up didn't fit into my caliper so I needed to reuse the stock ones and I also had to grind down the pad ears to fit properly. The fronts were particularly bad (part no. ACT1539).
