dont the dustless pads have less braking force though?
i have used ceramic pads on other cars before, and while there was no dust, you could tell the pads didnt bite as hard as oem.

We're running a MFEST promotion on Cool Carbon brake pads right now. Check it out on our site:

http://www.europeanautosource.com/pr...oducts_id=3105

Brake dust levels are 1/3 less than OE pads, and doesn't squeal like the others do. Friction levels increase with temperature from cold starts around .41 coefficient of friction, all the way to .52 once all heated up. In comparison, there really is none. Let me know if you have any questions.
