Skytop

Has anyone found a performance brake pad that does not throw off so much dust? What is the brand name? Thanks.

Edward

Skytop,

For street or track? For the track, I use Performance Friction pads (PFC) and am Very pleased with the performance! Though I'm not terribly concerned with cleanliness on the track, I have noticed very little brakedust with these pads (compound 97).

For the street, I use OEM Textars. IMO, these offer great feel, stopping power, low noise, and low dust. I personally don't see how one exceeds what the OEM pads offer...on the street, anyway. BTW, DON'T use Jurids!

Tend to go along totally w/ Edward; PFC 90 on track, Textar on street. Textar excellent (in my opinion) on street re dust. On track, I place stopping on a much higher priority that a pretty car. Cleaning the car after a track event, when I hit the rotors with a solid spray from the garden hose, I get a heavy flush of black water coming out of the wheel wells. That's the price of having good track braking. Sorry, but I feel if you're worried about a concours car, don't hit the track.

Skytop:

IMHO, you cannot go wrong with either Ferodo 3410's (street) or DS 2000's (street/track).

Excellent cold-to-hot grip, easy on rotors, and low dust that will not hurt your wheels.

Jurid is too soft, creates too much brake dust.

Yup!!! And the worst thing is that they were only a few bucks less than OEMs...pennywise and poundfoolish
