New Pad Offering from KNS Brakes

Since the first week of ownership I've been on the hunt for a good performing brake pad that dusts LESS. I have had a few different performance cars with Brembos, BBKs etc and have never seen pads dust like these stock ones from Ford.

It appears KNS is offering some new options that haven't been mentioned on here. Just reaching out to see if anyone has any experience with the following options.

If anyone is aware of any other options, I'm all ears! I'm not disappointed (pleased actually) with the stock braking performance, just looking for something that doesn't make a mess of my wheels in 2 days flat. So as long as they perform AS good as stock, I'm happy.

Thanks guys!

I sent a quick note to KNS and Ken highly recommends the Carbotech 1521s. They seem like a great pad, but man $280 just to reduce some brake dust is tough to swallow. Still curious if anyone has tried the Hawk 5.0s or Ceramics on any of their cars!
