I don't have any plans to take it to the track in the near future, but I would like to potentially this summer. But just worried about normal street driving for now. Seen a few recommendations for pads that create less brake dust.
Thanks.

visibly you can look at the pads and see the remaining brake material, and see how close it is/isnt to the rotor, as well there is a small metal bar on the exterior pad that is a wear indicator, this will make contact with the rotor and make a terrible noise, that is there to inform you that it is time to change the pads.
