Brake Pad Suggestions
Ok everybody, I need some input. I put new Brembo blanks on all four corners of my 98' GSR along with Axxis Ultimates about 5 months ago. Now I can't complain about anything on the new setup but the dust. My lord can those new pads dust!! 
As far as stopping and quietness, I am more than satisfied with the new pads (I had OEM pads before these). But back to the dust issue. I would like a little more stopping power over OEM, but the OEM amount of dust was really nice. Is there a decent priced pad that will stop a little better than OEM, create no noise, and create minimal dust?? That Axxis pads were my first experience with other pads besides OEM, so I don't know much about other brands. Any input is greatly appreciated!! TIA

Sorry dude, I have them too. They dust, but it is not the nuclear winter dust that will not wash off. It seems to me that someone suggested Hawk pads to me when I was shopping, but no experience with them.
