dang, almost makes my wheels look like they are gunmetal.

just recently I have noticed that the break dust has been accumulating faster than normal.

anything I can do to slow this down?

What type of brake pads? I have ebc green stuff and mine look like this

They said it will get better but we'll see

OEM pads.... from had them replaced from the Acura Dealership about two months ago.

I dont recall me having as much as I have now in about 400 miles of braking (approximately 2wks) when using stock pads.

i get lots of dust as well with my ebc green stuff.

if you had the axxis you would think your wheels looked clean!

Mine look like that 1 day after washing

Yeah my front look like crap because AutoZone only had the cheap ones I went to O'reilly and got Wagner ceramic pads.

I'm tempted to redo my front and throw the crappy ones away and replace them with ceramics.

I have been using Akebono pads since October and they put out a minimal amount of brake dust. Better than stock pads for stopping but from what I was told will not hold up for use on a track day ( I haven't tried this myself yet).

Fsttyms1 is absolutely correct. I just have my Axxis Ultimate replaced to EBC Green a few weeks ago, because the Axxis has worn down to the squeeking wear indicator. The EBC Green is a LOT cleaner. Now it has been slightly less than 3 weeks, and my wheels are about the same as two days on Ultimate.

Ever see what a German car rims look like? Even my parent's Volvo ... the brake dust is absolutely horrible. And I thought the Honda / Acura OEM brakes weren't that bad ...

I just changed the fronts to Raybestos Quiet Stop pads which are ceramic. They dust just a fraction of what I had before. It's been about a week and a half and wheels look better than they would after just a day or 2 with the prior pads which I believe were original oem pads.

darkfox12

yea my ebc green stuff have just as much dust also

BIG_KOUT

I have oem pads and after a week they look no where near as bad as those in the pic above. Just normal layer of dust. Those aftermarket pads are a trade off. Better braking but u gotto clean ur rims every day

My dads S70 looks like that, and my 540 used to look llike that after just 1 day. The TL-S was heaven compared to these 2 cars.

It was so bad, I swapped out to low dust Axxis Deluxe plus pads at all 4 corners even though my pads were practically new. These new pads perform just as good as the factory pads, but a fractionof the dust.

need to also remember every one drives different and has different severities of driving that can produce more or less

bkzjimmy

raybesto's quietstop is pretty good, and not too much dust at all
plus only about 40 bux a set
