I haven't tried these myself but if Stillen recommends them then they can't be all that bad. If you get these or any other brand please let us know if the claims are true about less dust, etc.

I went with Rotex when I swapped my rotors out. They squeaked like an SOB for the first couple of hundred miles, whenever I was in stop and go traffic. But now they are perfect. No real evidence of brakedust at all.

I've used EBC's Green Stuff pads for several years now, and they work really well. They don't fade as quickly as the stock pads, and they recover quicker as well. I plan to get some for my GC SRT8 very soon. Now, if they just had the Sport Rotors for this thing... :)

Check the 300c forum
http://www.300cforums.com/forums/srt8-general-discussion/19053-solution-srt8-brake-dust-rotor-scoring-squealing-problem.html?highlight=brake+dust

The products Dave Zeckhausen selling seems to solve the brake dust problem, with excellent reports from the 300c members. The only bad thing, they are selling very fast, you have to wait 4 to 6 weeks to get a set.

Don't go to the track with Greens...they can't stand up to that kind of abuse and will leave pad deposits on the rotors (which have the symptoms of warped rotors). They are fine for normal street use.

I had the same and switched back because the performance SUCKED IMO. Infact they are in the trash

I can't tell a performance difference...... but as I've said on here many times, I don't drive in a way that I'd probably notice.

just called Stillen and they dont have any pads in production yet. they said to call back by the end of the year and hopefully they'll have some race-approved, low dust pads for us lucky srt-8 owner. accourding to the guy on they phone so im just gunna get the stock one back on by the dealer for now until they make these pads unless i change my mind and go for the rotex which might not happen. but if anyone else knows of any other performance pads close to our stock pads fill us in
