Holy moly! I've had my 04 Track for less than a week now and the front rims are already covered! And I thought my Audi brakes were messy...

I noticed that today too, was at a dealership and they had an 03 performance with a buttload of dust on the flat inners of the wheels.
I can forsee myself doing a wheels-off cleaning every 3 months... and when I do, anyone know any good stuff to take off the carbon?

I get some of my stuff from Griot's (www.griotsgarage.com), it's a bit expensive, but they've got quality stuff.

Mine squeaked when real hot, (like after a track day), and also just intermittently when 1st installed, but quieted down after about 1000 miles.

Hawk HPS's always squeeled for me, so I switched over to Satisfied Performance Ceramic pads from Tire Rack. Even less dust (if you can believe that) than the Hawks, same bite, and no noise. VERY VERY happy with these pads.
