I recommend Carbotech Pads, and no I'm not affiliated with the company, but for my street pads, I only run them on my vehicles. Drastically reduced brake dust, didn't notice any loss of performance or increase in heat from spirited driving.
I love the Carbotech 1521 pads on my E60 M5. Excellent bite and modulation, never gotten fade when bombing around mountain roads, and significantly less dust than the stock Textar pads. Not zero dust, but I'd say 80% - 90% less.
When I replaced the front pads and rotors, I went with the same OEM rotors from Brembo but upgraded to Project Mu Type NS-C pads. I have not yet swapped rears but I can see that there is significantly less dust with Project Mu pads and no squeal. Stopping power is great and I havent had issues.
I have run them for years on my ‘05 Malibu v6 and they have been great on track.
When I was really into AX the best combo I found (and what I still run for the last 6 years) is Carbotech 1521 front Carbotech AX6 back
Carbotech xp10 + steel rotors. Sooooooo damn good. They’re track only pads and will squeal very loud if they’re cold, I recommend getting them prebedded if you can’t bed them on a track.
I recommend Carbotech brake pads. Expensive af but last twice as long and are better than just about any other pads out there.
I have project Mu pads and rotors, front and back on my 33 GTR. They’re fantastic products. But be warned, they’re gonna squeak. Sometimes badly. Having said that, it’s *because they’re good* that they squeak. They’re pretty much racing brakes, and if you’re not hearing them up high enough, they’re gonna squeak. So be prepared for that.
I got PMu Street Comp pads and rotors on mine, about a couple weeks ago. They are solid, definitely highly recommend the brand.
Over 25 track days I tried : RBF600 + stock pads -> Failed
RBF600 + powerstop -> Failed
Endless + Carbotech xp12 -> Great but wore off quick
Endless + CSG -> less bite but much more durable
