Not technically true. Some cars are just like that with brake dust. Take BMW for example


It's been my experience with all German cars.

Thanks Spaceman....will keep for future


No problem. Have ordered a few things for them and they were pretty quick to get it to me. Really liked the free shipping.

For other than OEM stuff, I've had great luck with AutoAnything....I constantly get 10%-20% off emails.

It's a compromise deal.

You want a softer pad compound for less noise, but they make more dust. Also the softer compounds are "sacrificial" thus rotors don't get scarred up so much.

I used ProAct Ultra Premium Ceramic Brake Pads (from Advance Auto) the last time.

Really like them

Very quiet and clean. Cost a little more... I think front pads were like $100. I also replaced the rotors at the same time. Could have had them turned, but didnt want to wait for that.
