Fronrt Brake Pads

Hey guys, We have a 06 civic 2dr DX with 50K KM'S on it and the front brake pads are at the end of their life. Rotors look really good so I'm looking at replacing only the front pads. Looking around, it looks like the OEM pads were metallic and not ceramic. Can anyone tell me where I could get the Metallic pads? We are in the Toronto area in Canada. Canadian Tire has them for 30 bucks a set but I'm not sure of the quality.

Any help would be appreciated.

Dealer brakes. You can at least be sure of the quality, and you should know how long to expect them to last as long as your driving habits didn't change..
