Low dust brake pads

Looking to find the best brake pads with the least amount of dust for my 2010 SS. Saw the Red pads on another site, sounded good. Any suggestions from anybody who has had some experience with other than OEM pads?

Brake pads

FWIW I am a big fan of the Raybestos ceramics. I have them on almost all of my cars. No dust, stop great!. No complaints here. Their best rotors are great as well.

Do you have the Brembos ? If so, the choices are going to be more limited.
I'm going to go with the EBC redstuff pads when I change mine.

That stock pad dust is a PITA!

Ha ha thats right, I didn't even consider using the pads that came with my brembos. I could see that they throw out on 08 Banshees SS. I bought some from Brake performance, they stop great and only throw a little dust.

BTW I still have the brand new set of brembo pads if anybody wants to pry them out of my hands, it would be easy. The only reason I kept them is they cost 90.00.

No thanks. If you have those pads in your hands, then your hands are gonna be filthy from the dust.
