Brake pads that reduce dust?

Anyone know of a good brand of brake pads that reduce the amount of brake dust? My wheels get dirty in like 3 days after i clean them. such a pain.
any suggestions would help, thanks!

We carry both Mintex and EBC Greenstuff, both are lower duting pads.
Mintex are great for the street, while EBC's will stand up to a little more agressive driving.

Visit our website or email if you have questions.

I will not recommend using those pads- I have not had any luck on my CLK- As a matter of fact going back to have the dealership take out those pads that they claim to reduce brake dust-- They squeal just after a very short use-- I rather clean my wheels instead of the squeal I hear-- my .02 cents

I have the PBR pads barely any dust and never squeaks unless i leave the car sitting in the rain and drive away with rotor rust

The noise goes away after like 3 cycles of using the break i never think about it. Maybe they did not use enough paste on the brake pad backing.

I have installed EBC Greenstuff on a lotta cars, very low brake dust.

I'd suggest them.
