I just switched to Lyndall Z pads. What a mistake. They squeal like crazy and the performance is nothing to write home about (no noticeable difference from the stock pads). They may not make a lot of dust - but I never had issues with dust to begin with.

Lyndall's are the best I have used to prevent dust, but like Midnitevil said, their performance isn't much better than stock. I have noticed they seemed to wear better than stock.

I put Lyndall Z Plusses on the front a couple of months ago.
Now they've started squeaking at low speed.
I traded the hiss for a squeak.

I don't know about the dust part but Beach House HD put on a set of the new "no squeal" pads on mine in May...it's worse now that it was before the "good" ones were put on. I probably will go with the Lyndalls next time.

+1 and AMEN to that!

Lyndall Z+ are all hype. They are no better than stock, and dust as much as stock (it's just a lighter color dust, so you don't notice as much).
