Hey, about 1 month ago i installed all new brake pads on my 02 maxima, They were Axxis Ultimates and since then on the front Rims iam getting abnormal brake dust my rims look gun metal after a couple days of cleaning, is this how all of them are or is there something wrong? thanks

 

yup

i had them for about 1 month, after 3 days of hard driving my rims were covered with dust, they also squeeked

i switched the fronts to raybestos quiet stops, NO DUSTING and identical stopping characteristics

i still have the axis ultimates on the rear, and after a couple of days you can tell that the front rims are still polished looking, while rears are covered in brake dust

i WOULDNT reccomend these pads

 

Blayt and the box says Minimal brake Dust imma call Axxis and see what they can do

 

Same results here.. Only good thing is they clean up easy.

 

Lol yeah they do Wheels look good also when its covered in the grey dust

 

My cousin said next time he's getting brake pads he's going for ceramic ones, he told me "Because, there won't be any brakedust."

Does anybody recommend/have ceramic brake pads?

 

Well there will always be brake dust just some pads have very minimal..

Raybesto Pads are good and Axxis were until alot of us started to have crazy brakedust

 

I am using the carbotech bobcats and they dust less then stock in my opinion

here is some info on them from their website

Carbotech Bobcat (1521), the much anticipated replacement for our heralded Super Street F. Like our Panther line of compounds, Bobcat is a ceramic based friction material offering practically zero rotor damage. Bobcat offers outstanding performance when cold, very low dusting, and low noise with an excellent initial bite. Friction coefficient is .45 over it’s operating range of ambient temp to 900F. Bobcat is suitable for street, SCCA Solo 2 and Prosolo applications. Bobcat is not recommended for on-track driving schools or club racing. http://www.carbotecheng.com/prod-ct-compounds.htm

 

yea....same here...amazing amount of brake dust and squeaks like a ****. But noticed improved braking over stock.
