Does anyone have any suggestions on how to control brake dust?

Do you have aftermarket pads? If not then look at Hawk Performance Ceramic Pads. They are virtually dust free pad from what i have heard.

You don't. You either deal with it, or switch brake pads (and deal with it less).

You can try apply a sealant on your wheels and wheel barrel. Try Colline 845, should help reduce brake dust for a few months at the very least.

@OP:

I havent used these myself, but I do remember coming across "Brake Dust Shields" (installed at the back of each wheel):

No idea on how effective they are..just thought of sharing this..

Prevention is key. Get carbon-ceramic pads from Hawk.

Yep, the Hawk ceramics will take care of most of the brake dust. Please feel free to call, PM or email me anytime with questions.

Best regards,
