 Can anyone recommend a brand of brake pads that won't leave any dust? I'm currently using Mintex (red box)  on the rear and they mess my wheels really bad.  I'm running full metallic pads from Auto Zone in the front, and I love them.  My car stops quick, they make no noise and my front wheels are always clean.  Unfortunately Auto Zone doesn't have metallic pads for the rear.  Any suggestions are really appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your feedback

We should have some.  I'll post you some info in the morning.  I run them on my car, Powerstop is the brand name and they are AXXIS Metal Masters.  Good pad and no dust.

Powerstop part number is 23-279-01.  They  would sell wholesale for $32.78.  I don't have them in stock, but I could order them from Powerstop and them drop shipped to you.  You would get within 2 weeks.  There would also be a shiiping and handling charge of about $10-12.  It would have to be done via credit card if you want to buy them from me.  If you need to do a cash transaction you will need to find an O'Reilly Autoparts Store.  I can help you find one and we will work out a deal with the manager.  The pricing would be different.  They would buy them from me and then sell to you.  Powerstop was a division of TRW and TRW recently sold them off and they are now there own company.  Good quality stuff, I use them with out trouble.

I use organic brake pads up front - PBR I believe they are...always very little if any brake dust from them, I'll continue to run them.
