Default Post showing dust from Stoptechs and stock calipers with the cleanest pad I know.

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/2870/dsc02310.jpg"></center><p>Here are pics showing first the rear wheel and below, seperately the front wheel. The rear's still have Mintex red pads on them. The car went for 2 weeks and 500-600 miles without a wash with aggressive driving and some rain. I like the Mintex pads but the Deluxe + are significantly cleaner and are robust enough for sport driving although they lack a bit of initial bite. The Axxis Ultimates are better in this regard but it's a dust fest like the OEM pads. So are the Porterfield R4S though slightly less. Seperately, the R4's are good track pads but the best I have used on the track (without going to a race pad) are the Pagid Orange (they out dust everything). The Axxis Deluxe Plus are good for the street (I drive very hard), not track, and are the cleanest pads I have seen in this application. Again this pic is of the Mintex Red on the rear.

Default Here's the front wheel of my 4.2 sport with the Axxis Deluxe Plus pads. Real clean!

No kidding, looks like I'll be going with those when the time comes to replace my brake pads.
