I'm looking for very low dust and willing to loose a bit of performance over OEM pads.

All the reviews contradict each other. Some people love Project Mu and now I'm reading this very negative review. Carontech is also getting reviews on opposite ends of the spectrum.
How about we create a poll for some of the pads?

A poll is pretty pointless. Everyone has different needs. What suits one person may not suit another. Popularity has nothing to do with being happy.

I just ordered the Raybestos front and rear rotors with Stoptech Street Performance pads from Amazon for a total of $476.67 with free shipping. I'll post my review once they are installed and broken in.

Took the recomendation from sarge on the wearever pads...very happy with them.i had pmu pads before with alot of meat still on them.they began to squeak pretty bad. Its been about 1000 miles on the wearever pads and no noise and minimal dust. Bite is about the same as the pmu pads

I agree with your point but I assume it relates more towards track use as a consideration. I think there are way to many variables involved in choosing a tack pad. They are user specific.

My thoughts where that the majority of users here are looking for a street pad with little to no track use being a factor. Based on my reading I have made the assumption that that majority is looking for that same qualitys as me, that being.....
A low dust pad with close to the same performance as the OEM pad that has a good service life.
I feel as though that is something that can be voted on. That being said votes are still a matter of opinion.

Hey guys..

I'm having trouble to find the Wearever ceramic online anywhere for my F, seems like advance auto parts stop carrying them i guess.

Part No. CNAD 1365 Fronts $51.99
Part No. CNAD 1366 Rear $45.99

but there is another one I saw on there is the Wagner ThermoQuiet

Part No: MX1365
Part No: MX1366

Anyone have this on the F before? I'm also getting the RAYBESTOS rotors as well.

Thanks
