Are there brake pads that will fit an 95 740i (E38) that are less dusty than stock?

I was excited to find out about the Repco Axxis pads for my 95 740i and
tryed to order them from Vertex, but they are only available for 1988-95
E32's according to them. Then I tried Steve G and ran into the same thing -
N/A for an E38. I thought some of you E38 owners out there were using these
(the new metalmaster) pads. I talked to Chuck (another 95 740i E38 owner)
and he bought the Axxis D1131M pads made for the 88-95 E32 from Vertex and
he said they work fine for him. I'm nervous about doing this, as Vertex AND
Steve G (Ultimate Garage) both said they aren't a "fit".
Any suggestions about dustfree pads (compared to stock, that is!). My front
wheels look like s*@t after 3 days of city driving. I don't want to buy
Kleen Wheels as I'm told by many that they will warp my rotors, or may warp
them. I don't want to take the chance. I do alot of braking.
