It must be the way I have my brake set with no bcking plates and the size and offset of the caliper & rotor + maybe even the rim style (I'm thinking the combination together that has an effect on airflow and dust dispersment) but I have very very minimal dusting on my chrome IROC rims ever using the EBC greens.

front ceramic pads = hardly if any dust.
rear semi metalic = not much at all.

my brakes stop ok but not too great even with a good full bleed and stainless steel earls brake lines.
