mediabandit Posted April 17, 2009 Report Posted April 17, 2009 So guys i was wondering what you guys think are the best pads to get that give off the very least amount of brake dust. Reason being is that it is a pain to keep my rims gleamming so if i can cut down on the amount of brake dust, that would help a lot. Now i probably won't be putting them on until the end of the summer as i have new ones on there now, but i would like to know what you think the best ones are. Keep in mind i do not want to a pay fortune for them, but best pads with least amount of dust for the best price. Thanks. I was looking at these ones here: http://www.streetsideauto.com/products.asp?APQCat1=1673&APQCount=1&ParentID=12&SubID=145&ptid=5632&brand=BHWL&series=EBC+Ultimax+Pad+Set&lsbYear=1991&lsbMakes=CHEVROLET&lsbModels=LUMINA&lsbSubModels=Z34&lsbEngTypes=V6&lsbFuelDels=Fuel+Injection&lsbASPs=Normal&VQString=None&LookupType=YMM Quote

Venom Posted April 18, 2009 Report Posted April 18, 2009 Ive always used Auto Zone ceramic pads with low dust results. I think they are the Duralast Gold versions. Quote

Venom Posted April 18, 2009 Report Posted April 18, 2009 I currently have them on my Dads Astro Van and the braking is great. They have been on there for almost 2 yrs I believe and they are just now started to cause a vibration in the front end. I cant really comment on the dust because the steel wheels are all rusted and nasty anyways. But I've used them before on my 92 Camaro which had those polished 5 spokes and the dust was very minimal. They were labeled differently back then before AutoZone started packaging everything as Valucraft or Duralast. I plan on running them on the front of my CS once I can get those damn brake caliper bolts broken loose Quote

I'm considering trying them i would highly recommend them, i had them on my GP when i was running x-laces, and it was about 45x times better to clean because they didn't turn the rims black after like 3 days. now i just go with the cheaper pads because i have no money and i am using the 5-spokes.
