I agree there are better options that the OEM's could use for their brake pads.Brake dust is the NUMBER 1 complaint at most Service Dept's of the Luxury/Performance auto companies.The hard core enthusiast don't mind the brake dust (comes w/ the territory) as much as the lux drivers.Unfortunately......the German Auto Companies view the brake dust as a badge of honor!!!!!????
