OEM brake dust!!

hey guys..i have the stock brake setup and my problem is everytime I wash the car it takes me a ton of time to clean my rims due to the brake dust emissions. I was thinking of replacing the brake pad or maybe the caliper as well to eliminate such problems....any advice!

Girodisc Magic or RacingBrake ET300 pads are your answer!

How often do you wash them? I usually wash my wheels every 2 weeks with just automotive soap and water and they look like new.

Brake pads, no need to change the calipers - search for dust. There was just a thread about it less than a week ago.

It would be easier to treat the wheels with a high-temp sealant, wash them as I suggested, and maintain the finish. This will make cleaning very easy. Stop by the detailing forum for more info.
