Hawk vs. EBC

Trying to decide between the HPS and the Green Stuff for the DD. I read where HPS is better but has a lot of dust, where EBC doesnt. How much dust does the HPS generate? I dont want to have to wash the car every week due to the brake dust. I found alot of info on HPS but I havent found many people who use EBC. Anyone had experience with both?

I have the HPS and have little dust and 0 noise. I love them, and would buy them again.

I've been hearing people on here and reading that people who buy the EBC products end up with pad debris, and very short life and lots of pad glaze....

if it's the daily driver (DD) then get some honda pads...

Greenshit has got to be one of the most unanimously voted garbage pads in the history of brake pads. They glaze, they dust they make noise and worst of all, they don't seem to stop too well.
Buy the Hawks, they make a little bit of a mess, but they stop too.
Search for Hawk, search for EBC or Greenstuff... a lot of people have used both, and there's a reason they don't have green **** anymore.

Of course all the stuff about greenshit was posted "after" I bought them!
Anyway, I have no problem with them stoping,makeing noise, ect ,And no dust-just some slimey black stuff allover wheels
