I have no dusting with my AEM pads and Brembo slotted rotors. The SS lines from Goodridge were about $150 from tirerack.com. I bought the rotors from them also, The AEM pads are quiet, I've had no noise problems. The feel of the combination is excellent. I can't speak for how other aftermarket pads work. I went to my setup from OEM rotors and pads that had about 70k miles on them. I also put on H&R OE Sport springs and Koni Yellows. This helped the nose dive problem. The overall braking feel is excellent.
