If you want a very low dust and no noise pad for the street thats cheap. I suggest the Duralast pads that Auto Zone sells. I got the top model they sell (Golds) because my friend had them on his Brembos on his TL Type S and told me to try them out. I don't track my F and was tired of how much brake dust the OEM Brembo pads put out, the wheels got dirty after a day. Well with the Duralast pads, which were only a little over $100 for front and rear pads, work great. Also it now takes at least a week of driving to even see any brake dust on the wheels compared to before with the stock pads. I love the fact that the wheels actually stay clean now. Also I noticed no difference in how the car stops, feels almost exactly the same as before. I kept my Brembo pads in case I ever wanted to use them again. The Duralast pads also have a lifetime warranty. So you really will only have to pay for them once.

Guys - Here's the scoop on Brembo manufactured discs, straight from Brembo's website.
AIMCO can be had for under $100 a rear rotor. Not bad for genuine Brembo parts...

Has anyone installed Stoptech Performance pads on the Isf?
I read many great reviews for other cars incl. track use reviews. Very positive.
Couldn't find anything from Isf owners. Please anyone?
I would love hear some feedback, if not, I will order these and provide some feedback for you,
as soon as instaled.

They work like OEM IMO, and that includes the dusting, which is horrible. Granted I have them only on the rear with raybestos rotors. I won't be using them again, but I don't track my car and will be looking for a pad that doesn't dust. If you're not concerned with that then they are a nice pad.
