Having trouble?
I have a problem with break dust. Do anyone make a shield to keep that stuff from getting all over my new rims or is there a way to keep the level of dust from coming out? i hate break dust with a passion. it just doesnt go good on chrome.

Well...you can buy those metal shields to keep your rims clean, but they cut off air-flow to the brake system and you don't want that. Plus they don't look that great. Best thing to do is by brake pads that are low dust formulation. Probably not much more expensive than the brake shields anyway.

Definitly go with a different set of brake pads. They tend to cost a little more but its worth it, unless your just wierd and enjoy cleaning your wheels everyday.

Or, at least do the fronts with those good pads, the rears probably won't dust no matter what brand you use.

i dont ride the breaks at all or anything like that. Really i try to use them as little as i can to try to reduce the amount of dust. I have to change my oil soon so im gona change the break pads at the same time and hopefully that stops it. Thanx for the replies!
