Brake Dust.


Is there anything I can do to cut down on the amount of break dust that gathers on my wheels. One time it got so bad that my dad thought someone stole one of my rims. I want to get new ones (I have stock rims right now,) but in the meantime, besides routinely cleaning it, what can I do?

If you can afford it upgrade to ceramic brakes and pads, the amount of dust is cut wayyyyy down and the particles are finer. I just installed Brembos on my 03 Cobra and they are definitely worth the money. I will tell you they can get pricey, but I am sure there are cheaper versions on the market.
