I have them with my Eradispeeds. They didn't make any more noise than stock pads until after my first track day. Now I have a squeal from what I think may be the right, rear brake (but only at a certain amount of brake pressure). That was a trip to Bowling Green and 7 months ago but I haven't had a chance to pinpoint the cause.

no squeel here, have them with powerslot rotors, love the grip the provide when braking but the dust can sometimes get crazy, but hey gives me another reason to wash the car.

I have em, not much noise. Just a bit at times, especially when hot. Not bothersome at all. As far as dust goes- a little bit more than stock. But as you said, don't care about a bit of dust. That's what water and soap is for. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I've had two sets of HPS's with my Powerslots. The first set dusted worse during it's entire life.

The second set I'm much happier with dust-wise. I don't have the need to push them hard that often. ONce in awhile I'll hear them squeak a bit, but it's pretty faint.

I use them for daily driving and autox. Dust is more than stock, but with Fiske rims I wash them daily anyway. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />
