Question EBC Red or Green ?

Recently bought my 2003 Touring with 7300 miles on it.
I hate the brake dust. Which will give me lower than stock pad dust, the RED or Green EBC's?

While I am a fan of both Green and Red stuff pads, after testing both on my Z, I think the Red suit the car a bit better. I never had any issues with fade on my Greens but the softer compound gave the Z a softer pedal feel than the Reds do. Also, the Reds have a higher heat rating and can be used at the track. I was originally worried about cold weather bite but I have since tried them down to 25F and they still stop great (that is about as cold as it gets here). The dust level with both Green and Red is almost nonexistent so for that its a toss up.

I have yellows up front and it leaves much less dust than the stock pads in the rear, although the front brakes are used the most!
