Default Brake Pads Textar or TRW ?

Has anyone used Textar brake pads or TRW premium ceramic from autozone? I'm looking for smooth comfort brake pads. The question is does Lexus's oem pad use metallic or ceramic? Someone has mentioned Lexus use Textar pads as an OEM. If it is then I can get the Textar as an oem replacement for better price at around $80/pair.
Thanks

Textar are basically the OEM replacement. Same amount of dust and bite. Some might disagree, but they feel very OEM to me.
