Brake Pads

[SoFla2016PP]

So I've done a lot of searching, and it seems the consensus is the Powerstop Z26.
I have a 2016 PP (Brembos), with just about 33k miles. I hate the dust, and the squeaking at slow stops.

If anyone has any other recommendations, or just input on the Z26 it is much appreciated.

It should cut down on the noise and dust?

And these are the right ones (they all say rear, reading the reviews these seem to the for the front).

Thank you.

I don't seem to have much dust on my 2019 PP2, but I do notice the squeak with the windows down and radio volume too low lol. I guess at some point I need to research a good pad for the brembos.

That squeak drives me nuts.

I have the Z26 and hate them. No initial bite and need much more pedal pressure to stop. They do not dust.

For street driving, Wagner pads are good.

I have the Z26 pads (and rotors from Power Stop) and I like them. I can't compare them performance-wise to the OEM Brembo pads because mine were fried when I bought the car.

However, they do dust far less. However, mine tend to make some noise sometimes when I brake in reverse when it is cold out.

Z26 on my S197 Brembo car works like a champ. Zero complaints or negative feedback. Have Z17's on my IS250 daily driver. Same report. IMO, can't go wrong. Have GLock GS-1's on my 350 that are phenomenal as well; just to throw out another option for you. Do I think the performance of the GLock is better? Yea. Worth the price of admission? Probably not. They're pricey compared to the PowerStops for a street car.
