Default Replacement Brake Pads

I'm in need of new brake pads-I remember people in the past recommending Mintex (I believe, "red box") pads-they said they produced minimal dust and were excellent pads.
Any thoughts or other recommendations.
Thank You.

I use Porterfields, with no 'squealing', although others have with these. Pagids also.

Default I've had Mintex pads on for 6-7K miles now....>>

No squeal, minimal dusting, and reasonably priced at less then $100 for all 4 wheels. ECS has them..<ul><li><a href="http://www.ecstuning.com">http://www.ecstuning.com</a</li></ul>

Default Have 8K on my Mintex on the TT, I also had them on my A4 for several yrs. No Problems.

They actually stopped my squeaking I was getting from OEM pads, and the dust decreased by like 70%. The dust you had would clean off easier too!
