Default Brake dust

I fought the brake dust battle with my previous F150. Looks like nothing has changed. I may have to change the pads now even with only 2,000 miles on it.

When you break your brakes, well...that's how the cookie crumbles.
But, when you crumble your brakes...well, that's the breaks.

I just saw that, WTF? I must be drunk. Having cocktails and scrubbing brake dust off the front wheels. ;-)

Notice... WHEELS not RIMS... that drives me nuts.

Though there was brake dust on the rim of the wheel as well.

switch to ceramic brake pads and your wheels will stay mucho cleaner.. I recommend HAWK ceramic pads..
