OK.. I searched, promise.

Buying brake pads, all these sites offer all these different brands, but with the same part number (mostly).

1. Which is OEM?

2. Is there an updated factory pad part number that has less dusting?

I'm using StopTech Street Performance Pads from tire rack, great pads, very firm, used for track they were great.

I use Akebono. Tirerack sells them. Very low dust and noise. I didn't notice any performance decrease from oem. There are probably better choices for the track but I am very pleased with Akebono for street driven cars.

I have been running Porterfield pads for years and am very happy with them. They offer improved braking vs. stock plus less dust.

Ceramic pads are not for the track.
