Green Stuff Brake Pads

Hi,

Anyone have an idea if the "low dust" Green Stuff brake pads are what they advertise? Love my car, but really tired of a two hour wheel cleaning deal every week...

Not sure about the low dust Green stuff, but the Akebono Euro Ceramics are EXTREMELY clean. Add a good polymer/wax coating on your rims, and whatever dirt and/or slight dust you do get rinses right off. Only difference I can imagine is that the Green Stuffs are supposed to have more initial stopping grab and the ceramics have to warm up. Just some thoughts, hope it helps some.

I use Axxis Deluxe ceramic pads and I can go 3+ weeks of not cleaning my rims of brake dust.

I'm currently running EBC Green Stuff along with EBC Cross-drilled/slotted rotors. I'm not having any real brake dust issues and they stop a little better than the ceramic pads. I went to EBC pads and rotors because I was looking for the best set-up for Auto-X, Driver's School and street driving without having to change out my brakes for the various different events. Just my two and a half cents worth. Happy Motoring...
