Good replacement brake pads?

I want to replace my brake pads but infinit wants to charge me a ridiculous amount. What's a good replacement brake pad that's dustless and stops as good as a stock coupe that's also affordable? I have an 06 and i only have 1 year left on my lease. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

hawks dont dust much, but they dont perform well either. initial bite is crap. but if youre just doing daily driving, they will work perfectly fine.

I have the PMU b-force.... great pads. Better than stock.

It still dust, but of a lighter color and not so noticible.

I just installed PBR's Deluxe Plus and they seem very good so far. They bite a little better than OEM, have virtually no-dust, and were pretty inexspensive-$35.

get something from your local auto store, or brake shop.

If you only have 1 year left then there is no reason to go for some high tech pads.
