I drove more miles on my new Haws Ceramics padlet and I see just about the same dust as my oem. I clean the entire wheel just before I went on a 12 mile cruise with little stoping, I checked my wheels and was pretty dusty.

Brake dust
If only GM/Delco would make them for the Grand Sport! I'm pretty sure they would sell a lot of them. What up GM/Delco?
It would be the number 1 upgrade on the "gotta do list" when buying a new Grand Sport. 1) Take off the shi**y factory pads and install the Delco ceramics.
