Hi Guys. just swapped from drum to discs and the pads give off a lot of dust and make my nice shiny lites look grubby, whats the best pads for me? I've also upgraded to a 1275. many thanks people.

Yep they do that. Ones that don’t are generally crap.

 

just clean your wheels more often.

My VW golf was shocking.  Extremely dusty, and wore through the cheese grade discs in no time.  Changed to good after market discs and a ceramic brake pad (EBC Redstuff) and I hardly get any dust now,  and brakes are improved.

I've got mintex 1144 and they're dusty, but I ceramic coat my wheels and it washes off easily. I'd recommend removing your wheels, cleaning them properly and getting some wheel wax on them.
