I need someone who's had experience with factory pads and switched to low dust pads or rotors to tell me what type of results they had...my wheels were powdercoated and need cleaning every day. I started slacking off and only cleaning them every three days and they started to stain. I think I'll get them powdercoated again next year but the cars put up 4 the winter. PLEAZ HELP! ( 04 545i w/sport package)

On my Plymouth Prowler the fron 17" chrome wheels would need cleaning all the time. I got ceramic pads and it cut the dust down by 70% I loved them. I dont remember the brand...got them at my local auto parts store...hope that helps

+1 for the Axxis Deluxe pads, I got my set from Trinity (fronts only right now, waiting on rear set), excellent price and customer service is superb

Easy solution...powdercoat your wheels a gunmetal or darker color next time.
