Just had my 120,000 service. The mechanic informed that my Lexus Pads are nearly down to the wear mark. He also advised me to replace the front disc's.
Which one's do you guys recommend?

I've got Mintex discs and pads on the rear and have had no problems with them.

As for brake dust if you wash your car enough you should have no problems.

I'm going for the hawk pads for the front of mine with the DBA drilled and grooved discs

Lexus IS200 Mods--TTE Supercharger, Tein Superstreet Coilovers & EDFC, 6000K HID Lights, HKS Silent High Power Exhaust, DBA Front Discs, Kenwood DNX9240 Head Unit, 19" Rims, TRD Kit, FIGS Bonnet Struts, Greddy Pillar Pod & Defi Gauges, TTE Red ARBS . And Been To WIM twice
