I ran the PF pads on my '89 with the stock brakes, using the lace wheels in
winter, and some 5-spoke chromes in summer. I didn't feel that they were too
bad. A bit  dustier than the stock Ford pads, but they also stopped and felt
better, also.

    Since the car gets washed frequently enough anyway, I
    see no difference in cleaning a little or a lot of pad dust.



  If I'd wanted to keep the wheels clean when I was running PF pads I'd have
been washing them after every trip. It seemed as if I could wash the car, go
a couple miles and I'd be dusted.....I think they even dusted without
moving!!! I agree with your pad criteria, but those PF pads were absolutely
the dirtest pad I've ever used!!!

  I'm running Porterfield's now and the difference is remarkable!!
