Brake dust
Is anyone else battling brake dusk. Seems like after every outing my rims are dusty again, just got rotors and pads change. Didn't make a difference

What pads did you install? You need a low dust pad. Carbotech 1521 is a good choice to reduce brake dust. It is an all around good pad. $270 and about 15 mins a side to swap.

The stock pads are filthy. Never seen so much dust. I was cleaning my wheels daily. I installed Hawks.... Padletts on the front..Part numbers are HB532F $93.70 I think thats the rear and then HB531F $$167.00 Front's? I got them at Amazon. These last a long time, have zero dust or noise and are priced right.
Good luck.
