Default Which brake pads will give me the least brake dust??
Been using PBR\Axxis Ceramic (i think) since last year...
and just too much dust coming from these pads..
probably have to clean them everyday..

Default I really like my Pagid Blues...
Very little squeel or squeek if any. However, I have crossdrilled rotors as well which may negate any squeeling...


Very little dust as well, and they bite like hell.

Default from my past experience red box is quiet.
true, they don't hold well under high heat, but IMO they are great for everyday driving.
