    Just installed my Axxis Ultimate brake pads.......

    I turned my rotors a few weeks ago, so I just deglazed them with some sandpaper, to allow the new pads to seat better.
    Took it for a drive, and I can definitely say stopping power has increased. It takes alot less pedal effort to stop, and I can actually lockup the wheels if I wanted to.
    At this point there is no brake noise, the pads come with an insulating pad on the back, so nothing needs to be applied to prevent sqeal.

    So as of now I recommend this pad, I will post my comments again after a few thousand miles. 8)

        do you know how these pads do with brake dust. When i change my pads i would like to get some that create less dust because in order to keep my wheels clean I have to clean them every 2 days.

        I know pads that generally dust less don't preform as well, but i just can't take how dirty my rims get in such a small amount of time.

          Same question here. Where did you buy them?

            I bought mine from Franklin at UDM Motorsports. I havent noticed any increase in dusting after 3 weeks and an autocross....

              I bought mine from brakewarehouse.com for $53 shipped.
              I'll let you know about dust in a week or two, it's hard to tell with black wheels though.
