I want a street pad with low dust, and one that won't screw up some x-drilled A8 rotors that I am buying.

mintex have a fair initial bite, but the dust I thought was pretty bad.
For the reason that once they get hot, they get crappy. If you then like to brake at the last minute. (4 pot brakes will allow you to do that). Take a look at this comparo from purems on brake pads<ul><li><a href="http://www.pure-motorsport.com/products/page.php?pageKey=10">http://www.pure-motorsport.com/products/page.php?pageKey=10</a</li></ul>

I have OEM Brembo now, prior was Mintex red box
Mintex were better for dust, but stopping powa and fade are much better with the Brembo. Downside for the Brembos is $$$, and I swear, they're the only pad worse than Audi OEM for dust....forget about keeping your wheels clean. I 'll be needing new rotors and pads soon. Decisions decisions.
