Zero Brake Dust??

Just put the chrome wheels on the Z...Oh boy the dust!!!

Is there such a thing as rotors calipers & pads that produce absolutely no dust at all....or are the ceramic ones the way to go?

I'm tired of cleaning the wheels already

All produce dust...ceramics produce a light gray dust which make it less visable...GMs Delco ceramic pads along with other name brands..
Good luck

Yes, there is. Side effect is that they absolutely do not shop your car.

The only way to have ZERO brake dust is to have a garage queen and never drive your vette.
