'13 GS replace brake pads (DUST!!!)
I have been searching on the forums some for the best 'low dust' option for brake pad replacement for my Grand Sport. Dirty wheels are the only irritation I have from my new Grand Sport. The only thread that I saw much on this topic is: (http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-c...rake-dust.html) Their just seems to be a lot of dissension among choice of pads. I think I might be in need of some high performance ceramic pads. I don't take my car to the track but I do drive it hard from time to time. I would appreciate any links to an excellent low dust brake pad for my car. (2013 GS). Thanks
