Any way to fix the brake dust?

[luciddaydream]

Hi there
The brake dust on these cars is pretty nuts.
Has anyone come up with a solution to this?

Either pads or some sort of treatment I can put on the wheels?
Thanks a ton

I’m going the two set route. EBC reds for daily use, EBC blues for track days. Just put the reds on. I’ll report back after I get some miles on them. These brakes are so easy to change, it’s not much trouble.

I've got EBC Reds now, they're very low dust however they have a longer travel and less initial bite after having about 3000 miles on them vs. the stock pads.

Good to know. They are pretty bitey at the moment, looking forward to them calming down a bit. I don’t drive like a maniac on public roads. I save it for the track so, I’m hopeful they fit the bill for my needs.

Yup I think you'll like them then! They still have plenty of braking force, it's just a different feel that's up to the preference of the driver.

No compromise on initial bites or temperature effect (eg low friction at cold temp.).
Consistent friction with excellent modulation besides low dust.
Not just a marketing claim, search GTR forum and see how GTR enthusiasts like XT910.

Be reminded XT910 is a compound for street and spirited (Mountain, Canyon) driving - Not a track compound.

Warren, can you comment on the effectiveness of the XT 910’s in controlling brake dust vs. EBC Red Stuff pads?

Have you gotten any feedback yet on a test set? Any downsides to the pad shape change?

I'm cognizant that the different lower corners on the pad will change the amount of airflow in that part of the caliper body. Would love to hear someone's feedback before pre-ordering your pad set.

EBC is a respectul brand who we don't know much about their stuffs so I can't comment.
As I said before our brake pads offer are limited to those where we offer 2 pc rotors and brake kits to assure the availability and an optimal performance and those pads are made with our own tooling and compounds.
The only two pad venders we outsourced the pads are Pagid and Endless for ccb track applications.

I placed a pre-order for a set of the XT910 front and rear. I assume you will work with customers closely in this first batch to ensure that the planned compatibility is verified, so I'm volunteering to offer you any feedback or images that you may need from the install.

Thanks!

Of course and thank you for helping the community.

@Warren-RB I just put in an order and will provide feedback as well. Very excited for less dust and better modulation.

I also have the EBC reds on, but admittedly with only about 400 miles driven on them. Definitely an improvement with much lower dust production. In my case however, I haven't felt much of a difference on initial bite/travel compared to the OEM.

Very sorry if I don’t understand, but are you saying the only way to order the pads is if with the 2 piece rotor and brake kits?

 

[Warren-RB]

No. RB pads are listed separately and can be purchased by themselves, and will fit OE rotors/calipers just like OE pads and/or other aftermarket pads.

To further clarify we do not make a brake pad unless we have offered 2 pcs rotors - Usually they are equipped with Brembo calipers.

Got it, thanks.

2021.... I purchased a new Evora GT410 Sport. After a couple of hundred miles I changed the OEM pads to EBC Red Stuff to reduce dust on the black shiny rims.
It is an improvement with much lower dust production indeed.
I haven't felt much of a difference on initial bite/travel compared to the OEM.
Now 4.000 mls on the odo, I am happy with them...........
I live in Cont. Europe; you can purchase the pads (without discs etc.) in the UK and Netherlands.
