When I called 4 to 5 months ago they weren't doing anything for 2020 but someone sent them what they needed to make them.

Does anyone have any 1st hand knowledge of their 1521 street brakes and dust? I am tired of waiting on powerstop. Just curious how their low dusting compares to powerstop.

EDIT

Well crap i just saw they are $230 for rear set, i may wait for the $60 powerstops that i know have almost ZERO dust......

Z23-2267 or Z26-2267 depending if you rubber backed or SS shim version...

I have some horrible squeaky brembos on my SS sedan and always use the rubber backed version (z23), cause if you have ever heard squeaky brembos you will want to stab yourself in the eye.

I have 1521 brake pads on my 2013 and they produce very little dust. The dust from the 2013 GT500 original pads was a lot worse than the 2020 original pads.

Which of the pads are you considering? Do you track your car vs daily vs weekend fun car?

Ok. Thanks. I cannot stand the dust either I'm just curious if the powerstop work as well as the OEM pads. I do track the car and the OEM pads work pretty well.

I have a complete set of carbotech pads. I am just contemplating going powerstop because the ONLY reason I want to change them is for as little dust as possible.

I have power stops on my vehicle. You'll notice brake dust for the first 50 miles in my experience due to the pads burnishing and breaking in. After that I have never had brake dust really worth the money.

I don't have any experience with the oem pads on track but I can say I didn't notice much difference on the street for what that's worth.

I'm sure it's not gonna do any good but I did email powerstop about making the rears. maybe if some other members do the same it'll help get the rears to market.

I have emailed and chatted with powerstop many times since last summer.....last email correspondence they argued with me that rears were same as gt350.....and then they stopped corresponding.......surely they will make them but who knows
