I too used Akebono pads and Brembo rotors on my wife's 2004 9-5 ARC. They're quiet, they stop the car and NO DUST. The wheels don't get any dirtier than the rest of the car.
I'll use the Akebono/Brembo combination on my 2007 9-5 when the time comes. This car came with Akebono's and I have never seen dust on the wheels. Amazingly, they don't wear very much either; I have 30K miles on the car and the front pads are not even half worn.
I bought the Brembo rotors from eEuroparts and the Akebono pads from Amazon.com (25% less than eEuroparts).
