I Love my car... But hate the brake dust.. how do I fix it.. My rims get dirty off a half a tank of driving. Theres gotta be some way to control the dust... I think maybe if I get different brake pads it will fix it.. But.. im not sure.. could be the disks...

 

Mintex RedBox -> www.ecstuning.com

 

Thats was easy.. thanks... so it is the brake pads... simple and cheap fix... I think ill get her done... thanks for the info

 

After I got my mintex, I whould nt be more happier than this. I used to have to clean my rims at least ones a week because they were all blacked out because of the dust. I have Mintex right know and WOW! Sometimes I cannot clean 2-3 weeks and just a little dust on the rims.

 

Sweet.... thats saves about a pint of sweat every week

 

is installing your own brake pads something that you could screw up on or is it generally an easy process?

 

Generally an easy process. However, on the rear you need to twist the piston as you push it in, some people have trouble with that - but they eventually all get it to work out.

 

dont use your brakes and you wont have a brake dust problem....do you downshift from higher speeds before using your brakes?...that would help...

 

i have the same car as you and need to replace the pads, don't suppose you remember the part numbers ?

i'm in the UK so may be a bit harder to find them here.

thanks in advance.

 

how are the PBR Ceramic Brake brake pad set?
