If you want something that has decent stopping power and will not make noise and little dust, then get PBR Metal Master Pads.

I use brake pads according to how I feel about my Porsche 911. I recently purchase these breakpads online and it suits my Porsche. Thank you to my mechanic, Ed.

The Bendix will work just fine for your use.

I use EBC Red Pads on the front, EBC Green Pads on the rear. ATE Blue Racing Fluid, and Braided Hoses. This has transformed the braking for not a lot of money. See Porscheshop Website for the details: http://www.porscheshop.co.uk/acatalo...omponents.html

Good info. I'll be in the market for new brakes in about 10K miles.
