Bernd uses a Raybestos pad that he swears by but I do not remember which one
it is.
I use the Hawk pads and though not a lot of dust, I am getting a bit of
noise sometimes now.

Subject: Re: DML: RE: brake pads and brake dust...
I just replaced my front pads and rotors.
Wagner Thermo Quiets were the "Best" of the "Good, Better, Best" that they
had.
Well I must say that after taking it easy for 400 miles, then pushing them
as
I usually do they fade more than the stock ones and produce much more brake
dust than stock.
I'm thinking of taking them back, ang getting something else,
Maybe I'll try those Raybestos PG Plus pads.
Has anyone else had good results with other pads?
