Best brake pads to get?

I have to get new break pads. Regardless of the fact that they are worn down to the metal, the squeking has drove me crazy. I also can't stand the brake dust all over my rims. I was thinking of just buying the OEM pads, since i don't want any squeking during stopping, and i HATE brake dust. Would OEM pads be the best for my conditions?

I think Raybestos Quiet Stop Brake Pads are better for what you want and come with a lifetime warranty....

do they not make The quiet stop for the back wheels or something, i called like 4 pep boys and they only carry the front wheel set? They say they only have the Reybestos metallic brakes for the back.

Yes, you are correct They carry the Quiet for the front only(part # PGD749QS)..

For the back they carry the PG Plus Premium (part # PGD750). They might dust a little more but are just as good as Gm pads..

Up front the OEM pads are what I use and like, but the Quiet Stops are also great. Out back I would run nothing but the OEM pads.
