Hello,

I have now driven my 2021 IS 350 Fsport for 3 weeks after last wash. I noticed that the brake dust build up on front wheels is virtually non existent compared to the 2020 model that I once leased. It has equal amount of dust as the rear wheels, which is a good thing. Do you think they still use the fsport pad? Its not really even mentioned on the new models, or did they just somehow improve it?

Thanks

Wow, that's interesting to note. I feel like they may have quietly changed the pads to the low dust non-textar versions. Noticed that they aren't noting the "high friction" F-sport pads in the spec sheet on the site anymore either.

The textar ones have such a nice bite.

GaryJG

yes. Doesn't have nearly the bite as my 2020 had. But I like the fact the wheels stay cleaner. Actually stops good enough for me though.

Yeah, I haven't had an issue with brake dust either. My wheels actually stay clean for more than a week now. I was amazed.
