any low dust pad will suck. There is no pad that stops well, has high rotor/pad life, and doesnt dust. You have to choose which you would rather have.

well yeah it all depends on where your priority is. If you have a show car you may choose low dust pads like axxis deluxe. But if you want stopping power you would have axxis ultimates... Personally I may get low dusting pads for my next set, I never drive my car hard on my street pads. In fact, I never even bother to bed them in lol.

so what is your priority? i'm lost on exactly what you're looking for in a good disc/pad combo. you want a rotor that can be beaten on at the track with high friction pads; then take it home switch the pads out and drive like grandma with low dust pads. all the while never bedding either in?

oh I bed in my track pads.... you can use different pads on the same rotors just fine. When I get to the track I swap out pads, bed them in, then run the weekend. When I'm done I stick in the street pads and leave. I don't bother bedding them in because I don't drive the car hard on the street anyways. After a few weeks of normal driving they stop just fine.
