Looking for pads with less brake dust and no squeaking

Read some of the topics and looks like Hawk ceramic produce less dust but still squeak. Any other people have luck with the Hawk or another brand? This is for a SS.

keep in mind that it is not always the pad material that squeaks, could be that nothing was put on the back of the pad when they were installed, this would cause the brakes to squeal, I would go with a quality ceramic pad, and a proper install.

Figures. Have about 3000 miles on my 11 and they have squeaked since day one. Odd thing is when im at speeds over 60mph and put a load on the left side, i can hear a squeak from front wheel even when im not on the brakes. Im guessing pad is moving around in caliper?

I did all my own brake work and the Racing brake ET 500 pads have been squeek free for me. Mine are clamping on RB rotors, but I see no reason they would not work great on stock rotors. I get some dust, but less than stock for sure. Give them a call.
