+ Infinity on the Hawks. If you don't want to change, use Wheelwax. https://my350z.com/forum/cleaning-and-detailing/142442-wheel-wax.html

Yeah, same issue here. But the dust gets all over the car too. It sucks.

Yes, some of those pads have bits of metal in them - chew up the rotor. Rather have the dust and replace the pads than buy new rotors! Price them--

Nismo pads are supposed to be better than Hawk for braking, they also are less dusty than OEM.
