Today, I installed EBC Red Stuff pads in the front. They're supposedly the best low dust pads out there.

i have the ebc green stuff pads on my other car, brake dust is very significantly lower than the oem pads, when my s2ooo pads wear i'll be sure to put an ebc product on. good choice.

I've had EBC red stuff on my S2K before. My experience is that they have very good "bite", but they wear out quite fast. There are still some dust though, but absolutely not the worst I've seen/had.

Back when I was a DSM guy about, oh 5 or so years ago, I bought Green Stuff pads for the GSX, and they literally stained my wheels green. Anyone had that happen?

Why didn't you give the AP1 OEM pads a shot?
