What I need:

I want high stopping power with no fade, but at the same time keep the brake dust to a minimum

What needs to be improved:

Our Brakes work great! I just wish they didn't squeak when your babying your car also we need something to reduce that brake dust! One day of hard driving my Rims are BLACK!

What I need:
I need a mid-range pad with good solid stopping performance with limited dust and the ability to completely clean the rim without any slow build-up of brake dust residue. I need the ability to limit the build up on the Calipers so they stay clean. I need the ability to use a wheel cleaner that will remove the dust build up as well.

What needs to be improved:
Nothing with regards to design. The only real issue is the same on any make, dusting.

Thanks for the opportunity.

I need low dust brake pads because I have bloodied more than 1 knuckle cleaning my rims. Low dust and otherwise comparable to stock and I can see myself trying a set of these pads when mine are done.

I need the reduction of dust produced from the brake pads with the improvement of stopping power and the durability of the pads.

What I need:
I want a break pad that produces less dust, but has the same, or better, performance as the stock.

What needs to be improved:
I want longer lasting pads and rotors that does not hurt the budget.

What needs to be improved:
Reduce the amount of dust given off by the brakes, and make them last a few more miles on the street.

The IS-F brakes work excellent, and completely meet my expectations, but my pretty silver wheels just look terrible within a day or less of washing. Plus, I'm not looking forward to the brake change @ 12k. But they do work well.

what i need
I would like a brake that can out match the stock brake with dust, noise and price. So that people with normal paying jobs can be able to have the performance at a price that leaves some money in there wallet. Also so that I can get away from having the dealerships overpriced stock parts and labor. It also needs to be a brake that wont wear done as fast do to the freeway miles I drive a day in stop and go traffic. also if you could recommend a sport tire with good traction in rain do to the fact I live in washington. When will the pricing on the brakes be out.

Thanks luke

In the stock sizes, take a look at the Nitto Invo and Hankook Ventus V12. Both offer great dry grip without sacrificing wet traction.

LEXUS IS-F

Front - $169.29
Rear - $111.83 (currently not available)

EBC doesn't build a rotor for the Lexus F just yet. We hope to see some in 2010 but we haven't heard anything on them at this time. We will let you know if EBC releases some.

i actually love the stock pads the way they are. i never had any squeals. it does dust a bit, but i would not give up any performance for less dusty pads.
