For pads I've used Jurid White successfully in the past, they produce a lot less dust than the OE.
Pros: less brake dust
I did a pad swap at 6k with EBC Yellow pads and it made a significant difference.
Pros: significant difference
Vehicle:
Subaru BRZ
Mileage: 6000 km
Ebc redstuff pads and dba rotors are what I run and I love it. The pads do squeak a little sometimes but only if you’re real soft on the brakes
Pros: love it, great performance
Cons: pads squeak sometimes
Vehicle:
Hyundai Veloster
I'm running DBA Street Performance pads. Low dust and performance seems fine. I'd buy again.
Pros: low dust, fine performance
Had the same issue with my 987.2 S, ended up upgrading to a GT3 master cylinder and brake ducts, giro disc rotors and RS29 pads. Obviously running decent brake fluid and change it regularly. It’s now great and can handle many laps of Oulton Park without fading.
Pros: great brakes, no fade
Cons: brake fade

Porsche 911

Vehicle:

Akebono are top notch. Bosch rotors are great. Especially the coated ones for areas that use salt on the roads in the winter.
Pros: top notch, great rotors
I recently had the brakes done on my 2016 XC 60 by my long-term mechanic. It was all four corners with pads and rotors. He charged $1300 Canadian (950 USD).
Cons: expensive
Vehicle:
Volvo XC60
Has anyone else experienced crazy dust from their Hawk HP+ pads? These wheels were clean at the start of the day, and what you see above is after 6 47 second runs.Advertised as low dust, I find it hard to imagine this is what they mean by that. Under hard braking, you can literally taste the dust in your mouth, and the car had a thin film over it. I reached out to Hawk 9 days ago asking for some clarification but have been disappointed not to hear back from them at all. Not impressed with the customer service, nor with the brake pads. They bite great, but the amount of dust im getting is insane.
Pros: great bite
Cons: insane dust, poor customer service
