    Best low dust pads that actually work?!

    Hi, I've has some greenstuff pads fitted for a while now to reduce the amount of dust on my new will wheels but i'm getting tired of them now and i just don't feel safe braking with them especially in the winter as even when warm seem to take forever to stop! I have new callipers, fluid etc so I know it not that.

    Can someone recommend me some good stopping pads that are still fairly low in terms of dust? I'm currently looking on Eurocar parts site and they do the Pagid Pads, are these any good?

    Any other suggestions would be great...Thanks in advance. :D

    DS2500 or DS2000 aren't that bad for dust

    Pagid blues are a little bit worse but I'd rather have a bit of dust and better brakes

    mmm i've used Ferrodo DS2500 before the Greenstuff and they really seemed to eat into the alloys even when I cleaned the wheels every week.

    How about just some normal oem copy pads from eurocarparts?

    Are they the "Street" or "Track" pads? I think I got the track ones so thats why they ripped up so quickly!
