Default Brake pad advice please.

As some of you know i have white wheels and they are currently black with brake dust, im looking for some fast road pads that will not cover the wheels in dust (well reduce it)
any suggestions ??

cheers steve

My Kevlar ones from Godspeed are pretty clean, but none are perfect.

No mine are pretty good. They are teamed with Godspeed two-piece discs 335 mm, and are good from the off.

They are good for ordinary driving, but also for a bit of fun on the roads

I've just ordered another set.

I've tried few of them and DS2500 has been worse,but they stopped car nicely,EBC BlueStuff NDX has been similar to the DS2500 in dust,but braking with them has been not good as with the DS2500..

Now we are running PF Z-Rated pads and they're best which we are tried,great braking from cold and mainly they're less dusty than anything what we are tried
