Does anybody know of any brake pads that don't leave as much dust as the ford ones? But still perform as well, or better?

Euro brakes are all the same , the softer they are the kinder they are on the disc but more dust is the down side.

Other than the pads, the other factor is the rim itself having certain aerodynamic affects to enable the brake dust or road dust or rain residue to contaminate the rim...
My AUII 16" Footoorah rims were barely dusty, but my BA Ghia rims are dusty by 100ks. |

Brake pads are no longer made with asbestos, for obvious reasons, and carbon brakes produce a hell of a lot more dust. There is a product that Bob Jane sells that is supposed to stop the carbon sticking to the rim.
