Default New Brake Pad obsevations

Just put Posi Quiet semi metallic brake pads on my 991.2 . I didn't need to change the pads but I wanted to do something about the dust. I am very happy with the results at least 50%-70% less dust and after spirited driving I did not notice a drop in performance.

Thanks for write up. Where did you get them from and how much? Did you replace brake wear sensors too?

Bought them from a rennlist member but they are readily available. Replaced the sensors, got them from pelican. Never changed brake pads before but with the write ups and videos it was straight forward

Numerous places sell them but shop around since the price varies but they are not that expensive at about $100: Front Part#: 104.17410 and Rear Part#: 104.14170

Just about any street pad outside of OEM will reduce dust heavily. I went with Hawk Performance Ceramic and this is my wheels after about 250 miles of driving. barely anything on the wheels.
