Cooper S brake dust driving me up the wall, what pads are you guys running to keep the wheels silver for more than a day?

Had my 2021 Cooper S for about a year now and I genuinely love throwing it around the roundabouts near Jumeirah but I swear the amount of brake dust these stock pads produce is borderline comical like I can wash the wheels on Friday afternoon and by Sunday morning they look like I’ve been rallying through a coal mine and it’s starting to wear on my soul a little bit. I’m not even that hard on the brakes and the car stops fine so there’s no urgent safety issue but I’m at the point where I’m considering swapping out the pads for something low dust even if I lose a tiny bit of that initial bite because my weekends are too short to spend them hunched over with a wheel brush every three days. I was doing some research last night trying to figure out if ceramic pads make a real difference on these cars or if it’s all just marketing and I ended up on a page at http://www.brakepadreplacementdubai.ae/brands/mini-cooper-brake-pad-replacement that had a pretty straightforward comparison between the OEM compound and some of the aftermarket options that claim to cut dust by like fifty percent which honestly sounds like a dream scenario if it’s actually true. Anyone here running Akebono or EBC Redstuff on their F56 and can tell me if the wheels actually stay clean for more than a commute or two or am I just doomed to a life of perpetually brown alloys because that’s just how these German engineered pads operate?
