Question Brake dust

Is it just me or is everyone else having to wash their wheels twice a day to keep them from being totally brownish/black. The fronts are bad bad but the rears do it too. Would a change to a different pad help? I have the Performance Friction pads on my other vehicles and don't have this problem.

Automan,

Try removing each wheel and waxing them.

It sure does make it real easy to remove the dust...

i put the raybestos quiet stop pads on my 97 and there is a big difference in the amount of dust. i don't know if they make them for the L but it would be worth looking into.
