Default BRAKE DUST DRIVING ME CRAZY!!! Anybody knows of a dust-less pad???
Hi folks. Frickin stock brake pad squeaks a lot and the dust makes my wheels dirty. Anybody knows of a carbon-metallic or whatever else type brake pad that stops good, doesn't squeak and doesn't produce or minimal brake dust??? Your input is appreciated!!! -Mike

Default try polishing and waxing the wheels,
if you do this the brake dust will come offwith little effort. i learned that here and it actuaaly helps. also use a quick detailer to get it off, Meguiars is great

Default Be careful w/ squeal !
Mintex didn't include any anti-squeal plates for my B5 application. Not sure about B6's
