Carbon Kevlar brake pads

Has anyone heard of these, or use them? They are supposed to cut down on the brake dust and offer better braking. Can anyone verify or offer their opinions on them.

not to be rude, but try searching this site first. Do a search for Porterfield and you will see...(they have been working great for me)

EDIT: here's your search results,

Dust: instantly eliminated after installing them (after short break-in period of 100 miles or so)

better braking?: Changing just pads won't do much as far as stopping our heavy *** trucks any better...I noticed no difference in braking performance.

My mechanic claims these pads will wear the rotors down quicker.
