Brake pads for IS250, suggestions?
Currently looking to upgrade the rotors and pads on my IS250 (AWD), I want to avoid pads that create crazy dust or that are noise, any suggestions?
Thanks
David

Brake pads for IS250, suggestions?
I am interested in purchasing the StopTech Front Brake Rotors and see them for sale in TireRack. The only thing is that there are 2 selections: One is for 'USA Spec Convertible' and another is 'Exclude USA Spec Convertible'.
Do you guys know which one to choose? The TireRack guy told me to look at the placard in my car. I have not checked yet, but wanted to see if anyone knew which one to choose.
Note the the USA and non USA spec convertible stuff

I didn't want slotted/drilled, so went with Stoptech/Centric HIgh Carbon Premium Rotors + Akebono Ultra Premium Pro-ACT Ceramic Brake Pads for the front. Almost no dusting (seriously) and still seems strong. Not sure if it has a bite of OEM, but I'm super happy.
[BTW - I have a IS350 F-Sport RWD. I believe there are a few other 250 drivers on here that use Akebonos as well.]

To be honest, I didn't even look at the PosiQuiets...I saw people raving about the Ake's so went with that. I'm happy with them in regards to no dusting! Part me is concerned that no dusting means less grip, and in an accident, it could mean an awful lot. But I don't ever want to test that.
