In the past I've used Akebono Euro brake pads and had virtually no dust.
In my "still new to me" 2003 9-5 Aero Wagon I replaced the pads and rotors all the way around. I used PBR/Axxis ceramic pads up front, purchased from a site sponsor. In the rear I used NAPA's in house brand (because I needed them quickly).
The brake dust with these pads is positively awful. I purchased a set of brand new wheels at SOC but do not want to mount them with the brake dust this bad.
I was under the impression that all ceramic pads did not put out the kind of dust the OEM organic pads do. What experience have you had?
The dust is so bad I'm considering throwing away all 4 pads and buying Akebono Euros. An expensive proposition....
