Brake Pads
Ok I ordered my slotted rotors and according to UPS they'll be here on Monday but now I need some pads. The two I'm looking at are Hawk and EBC Greenstuff. Which one's are better and which one's give off lest brake dust?

o, that will be sweet! at least you will have pretty big spaces and if you do have a lot of breakdust, wiping off the wheel wont be that hard.

I guess I should have said something. After reading tons of posts on all the different FBody forums I decided to go with the Hawk HPS pads and I already placed the order.

The Hawks seem to be the most popular by far.

2Poor4Z is an unknown quantity at this point
ceramic is def the way to go

on all car boards i have ever read (TONS) i would say greenstuff is the way to go between those two but o well..

i just have ceramics from autozone.. they are great esp on brake dust.. its much better deal too

I have the Hawk HPS pads and there is hardly any brake dust at all. I would definitly recommend them.
