Sick of brake dust
Hello all,
I've had my 2004 S60 a year now and I love it. But OMG, the brake dust is driving me nuts. Okay, I'm way too **** about a clean car.
I've heard of ceramic brake pads but the more I read the more expensive this option appears; i.e. new rotors, installation, etc. Would any of you pleaseshare your insights on how I should address this issue? I'd like to be mindful of costs and I have nil experience in car repair but I'm not afraid to tackle something if it's easy enough.
Thanks in advance!

RE: Sick of brake dust
Just shop around some more. Most quality brake companies sell pads with less dust; Brembo, Hawk, Green Stuff, Wilwood, etc. In other words, you can change the pads with out having to change rotor, of course assuming the rotors are good.
