If it’s brakedust you’re fighting, power stop is a good answer (cue the “brown rotors” responses). No, they have not turned my Z06 rotors brown. Had them on for 2 years now.
Carbotech 1521 pads are supposed to be a great street performer with much less dust than the factory Z51 pads. I just swapped some in this week. Less dust for sure.
For a high quality low dust performance street brake pad take a look at the Carbotech 1521 brake pad 100% non-corrosive dust will not harm your wheels, paint or rotors. Carbotech brake pads are 100% made in the USA and contain NRS Technology Here is a link to explain further what NRS technology is exactly: http://www.nrsbrakes.com

Power Stop for the best price and stopping power. Same grip as OEM. Also look into Armorall Brake Dust Repellent. I took a chance and it works very well.
I have had PowerStop pads installed on my last (4) Vettes. They offer amazing stopping power and virtually ZERO brake dust. Also, none of my rotors ever turned brown on any of the 4 Vettes I installed them.
