I wish my car had the higher dusting euro pads - they stop much better!

For those of you looking for a less dusty pad that still stops well, take a look at the CarboTech 1521. From their web site

"The Carbotech™ 1521™ is our high performance street compound. The 1521™ compound is known for its release and modulation, along with unmatched rotor friendliness. 1521™ is also a very low dusting and low noise compound with an excellent initial bite. This compound's excellent linear torque production provides incredible braking force without ABS intervention. Carbotech™ 1521™ operating range starts out at ambient and goes up to 800°F (426°C+). 1521™ is suitable for ALL street cars, perfect for your tow vehicle or fleet vehicle. Carbotech™ 1521™ is NOT recommended for ANY track use."

I used these on my Evo X and loved them. Very low dust, great bite, no noise and they worked ok for me in autocross and a light track day (on street tires). Strongly recommended!
