I do have a question, the wheels has a ton of brake dust when i picked it up from the dealer ( 600 miles from Elkhart )..
On my 159 mile trip home, i took some temperature readings and they were ALL about the same with not 1 being any hotter..
Rotors- 170-190
Calipers- 200-220
What say you??
The brake dust is probably from semi-metallic pads which usually give the best braking results. Some change to ceramic pads, which are reported to produce less dust. The negative to ceramic pads is that they do not produce as much braking force, so no free lunch with changing to them.
