Hi I just put new wheels on my 97 cobra an want to keep the brake dust to a minimum. What pads are the easiest to keep off the wheels? I'm not worried about braking performance since I don't auto cross or anything an Norwalk raceway has a mile of shut down area. I'll throw some pics up when its all cleaned up. They are 17 by 9/10 black annies with machined lip on a white 97 cobra. Thanks.

I use ceramic pads. They don't fade when heated up and don't really dust much at all. Which brand you buy is up to you, but I just went with some cheap Duralast CMax Gold's from Autozone. They perform better than the stock pads in every way.

My EBC Greenstuff pads weren't bad when I bought them, but as they wore on they started to dust more.

But... it's organic dust and comes off EASY.

This. Very affordable and completely silent as well.
I hate when you install new pads and they chirp at you!

I found out pep boys is dropping their hawk pad line an have them on clearance. too bad the closest one is an hour away, i could get front an rear for under $70. I'd have to drive there, order an pay for them, go back in 3 days to pick them up.
