I am in need of a front break replacement I am told, 40,000 miles.

I was wondering if anyone knows of a pad I can use that has less, much
less, dust than the stock pads. The stock pads really get the front
wheels dirty all the time and they are very hard to clean.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I am using Monroe pads and they seem to have little dust.

Monroe's are good, they are generally available through Canadian Tire and
are sometimes on sale. Raybestos are also good have very little dust.Wagner
are quieter than most but do have dust.

if you have a NAPA auto parts near you the CERAMIX pads that they sell
are outstanding. I have installed them on my F-150, Focus, and my wifes
Cavalier. Excellent stopping power, very quite and virtually no dust.

Many have tried mintex. Slightly less brake dust, and slightly better
stopping power...
