Brake pad dust

What brake pads do y'all recommend to replace the super dusty factory brake pads.

Most of us are using the Porterfield R4S brake pads. I have been using them for over a year. Reduced the brake squeal and brake dust.

I installed them back in December of 2019 and I have been very pleased with the performance and lack of brake dust and squealing when coming to a stop. Braking performance I have seen no difference from the stock brake pads. With that being said, I do not track my car but engage in some spirited driving. The times I have had to brake hard the pedal feel was solid and no issues with stopping power.
