high performance brake pads
What will be the best brake pads to achieve:
1) high initial bite
2) better brake performance
3) low dust
I've been using Performance Friction Carbon-Metallic pads for some time, I just love the performance but cant live with the dusting. Any other alternatives with less dust?

Also, what do you mean by "high initial bite" and "better brake performance"?

recently installed stoptech street/track pads,seemed to be excellent,hard to find a good balance between street and track ,you sacrifice some things with either application.these seem just right.......good luck

What is the intended use? What PFC have you been using? It will be easier to recommend something different if we know what you are currently using.

I think the PFCs are 97 compound.
With high initial bite I mean brakes that take early and do not need any warm up period.
With better brake performance I mean higher friction coefficient once warmed up.

I just researched this and ended up ordering Mintex Red Box. Seems like a pretty good set of pads!
