Low dust brake pads??

Anyone have a good source for low dust brake pads? I only have to make about 20 stops after a wash and the front rims are covered in brake dust.

I bought the truck used so the pads on it may be junk. Any thoughts on the brake dust shields that mount on the backside of the rims?

I had the same problem untill I went with the Kleen-wheels from Genos. They have been working good, no more dust.

Only 20 times? My rims look like they are the black rock crawler types about 100 miles after a wash.
I'd ve interested in a little less dust too, but not if I'm trading off for eating up rotors.??

I've had the Kleen-wheels for over a year now, and have not had any rotor problems. In fact, I have less rotor problems due to the back brake upgrades .
