Best way to prevent black dust collected at tyres

[tby84]

Realize tyres get really black everytime the car is driven... Any way to prevent that from happening all the time?

Yes, this was one of the things that bugged me the most as well. I solved the problem by replacing the stock pad to ate ceramic pads. No more brake dusts after that but got some irritating "clucking" sound instead. Wad told that the after market ceramic pad is of different size compared to the stock and this caused the noise. Then I change to bbk with ceramic pad.... all problem solved and I am a happy man now.

Tks Paladin, where do you do that. Does it affect the current brake feel that we have now?

Also how much does it cost?? I am sure there are other ways other than changing brake pads right? haha, like maybe apply coating?

Of course there are other things you can do like you mentioned. Using the rims protector spray, changing to dark colour rims etc. These are secondary fixes. But the root cause is the stock brake pads. The ate ceramic pads costs about $300 front/rear and installation about $80 or so. The bbk will be in the thousands depending on which brand / quality you want. You will need to do your own research on bbk as this is a major modification.

Using the hawk pads for the front. Rear is the stock compound that comes with the bbk.
