Brake Dust

Does anyone else have an extreme problem with brake dust. I can literally drive 10 miles and my wheels are covered in brake dust. Ive never had a car so bad.

You have to use aftermarket pads to get rid of the dust problem with these cars. If you need a set, give me a call at (310)533-8900.

Not only were my wheels covered in brake dust, but so was the sides of the car. It would literally only take a few miles to go from spotless to covered. Now I have 0 brake dust, simply amazing! Ordered them on Amazon.
