Default So it seems they reduce dust and reduce rotors. Any other ideas?
Don't want to have to replace my rotors very often but really want something with less dust...

Something's gotta give. Rotors are only 2x the price of pads.

Default Man you guys are scaring me
I just bought the PBR metal master pads with my brembo rotors :/ I haven't been able to drive it enough to tell you anything about them, still a little unresponsive on the braking - and the car is at the body shop. But now im worried about it eating this rotors up

Default Don't like em - had with my StopTechs on my old TT and ......
they weren't very good - noisy and performance was so so. I'd opt for Hawk or Porterfields next time around.

Default I've heard that Porterfields have given some people noise issues but
I put some on my sister-in-law's BMW and they have been fine for over a year. Don't know anyone who has used Hawk pads. Have you tried them before?

Is there any reason to replace pads w/ plenty of material left if replacing rotors?
