Dusty?
I am tired of cleaning my wheels only to drive a couple miles and find them full of brake dust again. Anybody have a fix for this,or do we all have to learn to live with it?
Thanks,Jim

Good ceramics produce the least in my experience but they also require more heat to work so you end up getting on them harder. I prefer them but some people don't.

The Brembo pads throw off a lot of dust. Many people have switched to HAWK pads.

I have Powerstop pads on my Hellcat and my wife’s 2018 2SS. Easy to change and perform great on the street. But most important.... nearly no dust at all.

The greater the stopping performance, the higher the dust. For daily driving, I use Hawk yellow ceramic pads on my ZL1 with the Brembo brakes. For track days, I re-install the stock brake pads. |

Yeah, I’m pretty anal about clean wheels too but I like to know those dirty bastards are there if I need em! I always assumed that it was a combination of pads AND rotors. There’s a clear wear pattern on my rotors after only 10K miles. As in, rotor material is GONE.

Power stop Z23 pads. Zero dust vs the stock Brembo pads.

Black wheels will still show brake dust regardless. Will look reddish in color.
