Ha ha! 20oz of steak a day? Then that means you cannot push 360lbs....

Brake disc and Brake pads ...

... Pencil written paper and Rubber

Harder the rubber, less residue, does the paper get clean up better?

Why OEM pads have so much dust? I believe there must be something beyond a consumer's know how, probably R&D department at BMW will have a better answer to that. I am not interested to dig deep into this, I'll just live with the dust. Keeping a car in great condition always cost either good amount of time (to clean it by yourself) or money (to clean it by professional cleaner).
