How do i combat brake dust?
I just got new rims for my Xb and had to get new brake pads. Now im getting this thick layer of brake dust building on my rims. The brake pads are "low-dust" so why is this happening? Do i need to get different rotors? Please let me know whats goin on?

you could get a magnetic disk that fits behind the rim that collects break dust, but those are pretty lame, it's just a thing that happens... it's a good excuse to wash the box more often, keep her nice and clean and shiny!

They worked!
In fact, I can go several months without washing (which I do a lot) and the back pads have that dark brown look but the fronts have absolutely NO dust at all. They are dirty of course, but is is dirt and road grime. I am so sold that I still have the box for when I replace the rears. When I get home I'll try to remember to email you the brand.
I am beyond sold on these things.
