Default Which brake pads?

I'm running the mk3 mondeo caliper and st170 disc conversion. Bought some new discs last week and a new set of pads from a local motorfactors.
However, I'm not to happy with the pads, they are the dustiest brake pads I have ever witnessed. Gave the car a good clean, went for a 2mile drive and the wheels were a darker shade of silver when I arrived with a clear complete layer of brake dust on them.

So out of curiousty, what pads do people use?

I run Ferodo DS Performance / DS2000 pads, but they're pretty dusty too.

I have the mondeo calipers too, using EBC grooved discs with greenstuff pads, good pads for street and also good enough to use on track. Pretty dusty with heavy use but general daily driving they aren't too bad.
