Brake Pads.....

I searched but everything seems to be for racing brakes. Any recommendations for normal everyday traffic brake pads that produce low dust?? It's a 90 convertible.

I have new power slot rotors and was going to install new pads. I read mixed reviews on Hawk Pads so I'm nor sure what other brands are good. I wanted Akebono but they don't make them for 2n gen.

I have limited experience to other pads, but I have had Hawk HP on my mazdaspeed 3 for quite some time now. They have worked out quite well for me and I can't see why anyone would really complain about them unless someone is also trying to use them for serious autocross.

Thanks, I hear good news on use on Hawk but equally bad news on brake dust. How is the brake dust on yours?

I don't really have a point of reference, the first gen ms3 oem brakes are notoriously dirty and these were an improvement.
