I'm looking to buy new brake pads for my 2019 CTR that produce the smallest amount of brake dust. I daily drive my CTR and do not track the car, so performance on the brakes is not important at all.

Does anyone have any recommendation on brake pads that produce the least amount of dust? My brother put Akebono pads on his CTR and thinks the dust is not nearly as bad as the OE pads, but curious what folks on the forum have found. Thanks

I've had pretty good luck with my project mu type ps, much lower brake dust than stock while having pretty good brake performance.

This^^^ I switched to akebono within 1k miles and the brake dust reduced I would say a good 50-70%. You can get a full set for about $108 shipped.

I just got these in the mail today along with new centric rotors. Bought them for low brake dust claims. We shall see what they are like.

For non track season, I do akebonos on the front and advance auto parts house brand on the rears, they haven't let me down yet.

The rears go so fast it's almost not worth putting anything special back there.
