brake dust buildup...

I recently installed the ART rotors and pads on the front of my SD, and ever since, I've noticed that the brake dust on my rims is building up much quicker than with the stock rotors and rims.

Has anyone else noticed this with the ART rotors and pads? Is this an indication of a problem?

Thanks.

I replaced my pads with "Bendix Titanium Plus". I have also noticed more brake dust build up, especially on the fronts. The pads seem to perform well, just a pain to keep the wheels clean.

Gav10,

Thanks for the reply...That's exactly what I am seeing...I thought maybe the pads just needed to get "broke in", but maybe it's just a result of what they are made out of..


Thanks.
