Another thing about brake pads when talking about dust , has anyone had the problem with the dust getting started on the paint job? I have a f150 and a f350 and both trucks are white so easy to see but the dust got started from the rocker panels halfway to the windows . A friend had the same problem and didn't catch it in time- took the truck back to FORD and got a new paint job . So anybody with darker color should take a good look.

Who else has tried the Kleen Wheels? Are others happy with them? Any problems with them? They appear interesting.

As far as I'm concerned, using brake shields is likely to decrease airflow and thus brake cooling.
I vote for NAPA Ceramix pads.

Do the Porterfield brake pads cause the rotors to warp from excessive heat. The reason I ask is that I have a Ford Taurus one time and had ceramic brake pads installed and my rotors got warped about every 6000 miles. I drive 2500+ miles per month. I would really like to get brake pads that don't cause brake dust, but am leary about warping the rotors.

I've got the Kleen Wheels installed. Brake Dust is a thing of the past.
Plus I like the look of the wheels with a solid black backing in the spaces.
They are vented to allow cooling of the brake pads. Their site answers a on of questions.
I recommend them. For $35 a set I think it was well worth it.
