Default Brake Dust

Has anyone notice that these cars give off a lot of brake dust. it was just annoying that i came back from the car spa and then by time i reached home and not beating on the car there was already a tone of brake dust on the rims

anyone else?

yeah, switch to ebc greenstuff or hawk hps pads. I have the hawk on my Z, they are more autocross/track oriented and squeal when hot, and have the greenstuff on my wife's g35c, they dont squeak, and dust less than the hawks.

I switched out the old pads to Hawks HPS' and what a world of difference. Now the rear wheels are noticably dirtier than the fronts after a weeks worth of driving around.

Go to this thread,or to the wheels/tires/suspension forum, for more infomation:

There's also a thread in that forum that compares Hawks HPS and the EBC Greenstuff, Yellowstuff, and the redstuff....
