We have Hawk Ceramic and Akebono Ceramic that be much lower dust and noise with good initial bite. The other option would be a performance based pad like the Hawk HPS that would throw a little more dust, but have good initial bite with continuous hard bite in the higher heat ranges. Those are more for aggressive street drivers.

If you want Pads which will out perform your OEM, without emptying your wallet. Go with Stoptech. Bought from a vendor here under $200.

^ I have those Project Mu pads on my sedan. They have good bite but they squeal way too much.
