I'm need to replace my OEM brakes and rotors and don't want to get the same OEM ones as they make a lot of dust.

I need some recommendation as to which ones are the best option performance/price/low dust

I've been looking at this website, what do you all think?

we carry some OEM-sized direct replacement rotors, and can set you up with pads that will produce less brake dust as well

Hawk seems popular choice in the US, i am using EBC redstuff and i am very happy with it. Very low dust and seems will last forever
You can also check out Pagid's pads, they make brake pads for some exotic cars like porsche GT3, Ferrari..also help developing pads for the motorsport
