Default Brake Dust

I just got my TT (awesome car FYI), but it throws off severe brake dust from the larger front pads, and light to moderate dust from the smaller rear pads. Does anyone have any suggestions for pads that would offer a reasonable balance between performance, price, and wheel hygene? Thanks in advance for your comments.

Default Mintex won't save you from washing rims...

I got mine for 500 or so miles now, and the dust is much better but still fairly present. Just that there is no misconception about that.<p>Of the aftermarket brands, Mintex Redbox is probably the best one - it's the OEM pad in Europe, anyway.<p>- Stan<br>
