I replaced the Brembo pads about 1300 miles ago. I went with the Power Stop Z 23 and Z 26. Yeah, at first they didn't have the stopping power that I was accustomed to but 1300 miles later, I can put my passenger through the windshield. Oh yeah, 99% less brake dust.
Now that I have a couple hundred miles on the new Z26 pads, I couldn't be happier! -And I totally agree B5Cat16...they feel about as good as the Brembos did without the dust. Man, I should have done this on my last HC instead of dealing with dusty wheels 10 minutes after I clean the wheels up.
If you regularly put passenger through windshield, maybe a better option is to invest in ejection seat and save on cost of replacing windshield so often.
. :unsure: - I know a few people that I'd hit the eject button just for the hell of it.....sunroof or not!!! :devilish:

We have all tried the Z23 and Z26's. Go buy some and let us know if they dust or not, and what you think. I see they are recommended for towing and hauling, but it says better cooling somehow.

Yea, the sales rep at Summit Racing I was speaking to recommended the Z36's based on how i drive (Very Spirited 😁). In addition to the reduced dust i'm trying to get rid of the squeaking brakes. The TrackHawk is my second SRT product i've owned and those damn Brembo's always squeak.

I have “23’s on my 2015 and 26’s on my 2019 and love them both. I do believe the 26’s make more dust then the “23’s.

Are you going to use them on a Challenger or Track Hawk?
