PBR break Pads: NO DUST

Just a heads-up on my initial impressions of the PBR pads on my '91 SE.
Put them on about 3 weeks ago.
THEY JUST DON'T MAKE MUCH DUST AT ALL.
Maybe 10 times less than any other pad I've used. UNBELIEVABLE!

There must be downsides:
- I do notice just a tad more pedal force required (maybe 5%) when they are stone-cold. After one break application, they feel perfectly normal.
- I do notice the wipe area is not quite as large - about 1/8 inch of untouched rotor on the outer edge.
- They may eat up my rotors; we'll just have to wait and see.

Happy camper!

DG
