Pads with low brake dust

The cheap valucrap and basic duralast suck. I have the golds on my Daily and have little dust. My gf has the CMAX pads and I can't see any dust and she is hard on the brakes.

I have HAWKS and they produce a good deal of dust. Any high performance brake pad is going to produce some dust, just the nature of the beast.

Re: Pads with low brake dust
I don't recall what flavor they were. Something street/track oriented. I have no idea.

I like Wagner Thermoquiet for "standard" driving. Seem ok for autocross too.

Re: Pads with low brake dust
I've had great luck with akebono ceramic brake pads. Very little dust. You can get them through Advance Auto, Pep Boys or Carquest.
