Sorry, I lied by mistake. I have EBC DP1037 pads on the front with slotted DBA discs. Still get a fair bit of dust. The ony time I didn't was when I used Bendix heavy duty 4 X4 pads that squeel a lot. I put Mintex pads on the back on standard rotors bought on line from the UK, they seem good too. I have great pedal feel.
Thanks for all the assistance. Look like going with RDA slotted discs and bendix pads.
I'm an idiot, I did it again. I have RDA rotors not DBA:). I swear.
OK....I have just ordered my RDA disks, slotted.
For the fronts, I got them for $205.
Rears, $189.
Got them here: www.onautos.com.au
They were very helpful, had the parts next day....and cheap!
Are those prices you paid, each or for the pair.Quote:

Greenstuff aren't necessarily low dust, but I was recommended that they work better with RDA rotors than DBA. Ceramic based compounds, Redstuff + other brands produce much less dust and are much kinder to rotors than metallic based. The Red 3000 series, are rated from cold to 800 deg vs green (up to 700), the yellow and blue are unsuitable as they don't start to work until over 100deg and pref 200+.
Try ebay store onlineperformance, they have a great range of pads and rotors and have listings for rover stuff.
Got my RDA 7005 slotted from TBS in Capalaba for $187.40 the pair for the front. They machine the slots. EBC Black pads $50 a set.. Really happy with them.
