Replacing SS brakes

Has anyone replaced their stock brakes on the SS. Not asking for myself, my uncle has worn his out already and wants new and improved. I know I personally hate all the brake dust from the stock ones! If noboday has replaced them, have you heard of the best thing to use? Thanks.

EBC Red pads will cut the dust down.

No pad is dust less. They needs dust to work properly. The less metal in the pad the better it is on the wheel.

I only have 4,000 miles and my change mine soon as I hate the dust.

Also, where can I get replacement rotors (not slotted or drilled) just replacing stock.

Just buy a set of bendix rotors. THey should be avaiable locally at most part shops. n

They are oe replaments and used on many GM cars so they are common.
