but as always, who's got the best customer service and if they mix match the pads to suit...plus looking for a good street pad with low dust. Any suggestions.

mine came with the car. Ferodo FDB560 street pads should fit the bill

I purchased through Achtuning. Service was horrible and resulted in a direct deal from StopTech.

Default I thought about low-dust pads... and then I realized...

I really like brake dust because I usually wash just the wheels once a week and it makes me feel like I'm doing a better job cleaning when they go from black to white haha

Default I bought mine from Stratmosphere

Stoptech packages the kits with their "pad of the month" included and in most cases they're drop shipped direct from Stoptech to you. So mix and match on pads can be tough. I wish I'd shopped it around a little more just on price, I found them for $300 less a couple of days later... It was year end sale season. Also, there's no way to say for sure, but I had unauthorized charges appear on my credit card shortly after this transaction. It was the only time I'd given my credit information over the phone in months. Subsequently I spoke with the same individual at Stratmosphere about ordering floor mats. I mentioned my credit card problem in the context of asking if PayPal could be used. Nope...

My floor mat order, and Emails since have gone unanswered.

If I had the Stoptech purchase to do over again I'd try Zeckhausen Racing

I'm using Carbotech's street pads, Bobcats...
clean, quiet, easy on rotors, and the car stops!
Highly recommended

Default BBK at KMD Tuning; PBR/Axxis Deluxe pads at Zeckhausen Racing

KMD had a great sale on late last year, about $1650 shipped. And you can't do better than Axxis pads for low dust.
