    $ Affordable $, low dust brake pads?

    What do you all recommend for a set of brake pads that create low dust and are affordable?

    I have chrome rims and in the past the brakes dust ate my wheels! I don't want to deal with this anymore!

    AKEBONO is the best hands down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    They are not cheap, but are reasonable and hands down I think they are the best available. I know from personal use as well as installing on customers cars.

    Orion helped me out on mine. Bendix brakes are awesome. No dust on mine. and its a DD. Autozone Pads got raped over a months time. Rims were black.

    reasonable pad for a really reasonable price, i know they are not the best but for now until i get some free spending cash for my maro theyl have to do. it also depends on how the car is driven, ill have to try those bendix, but when funds permit, ill see if the a-zone pads suck in the next couple of months. thanks for the suggestion though.
