Guest EGOXRT Guests Posted 20/05/10 12:39 PM Share Posted 20/05/10 12:39 PM It's pretty simple mate. To have good stopping power you need good friction and, frictionequates to wear and the dust you see is the binder, lubricant and friction material in the pad. If your pads don't dust up, it is your rotors being chewed up, what would you prefer to change?Pads that dust up, are pads that perform well and are less damaging to rotors.

I'm running Bendix SRT's (Street Road Track) quite dusty but FARK do they work! I've got them hugging DBA 4000XS rotors and man you've got to be careful when stopping, jump on them to hard and I reckon your fillings would come out!

discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Donating Members 13,798 Member For: 17y 2m 15d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 20/05/10 01:51 PM Share Posted 20/05/10 01:51 PM (edited) I had good experience with Bendix GCT pads dust wise. The rears with my stock pads were far worse and they stopped fine. Have replaced them very early due to hearing that they warp my new slotted rotors easily though. Using QFM (qld friction materials) pads now, seem decent. Squeaky but so were the last 2 sets, I can't escape it!. Low on dust too.
