No offense to the OP, and in my own personal case, Eff the squeal - it's the horrendous brake dust from the OEM Pads!!
Can't drive 10 miles without spending 15 minutes (at least) per wheel wiping the brutal dust off these new wheels and Calipers! If anyone can attach a link to which Pads produce less mess, while retaining the performance capabilities I'm all ears!
No Weeee, Weeee, Weee squeel like Deliverance here!
^^^^The pads are not made by Brembo, the calipers are. On the ISF the stock pads were made by Textar as I recall. Don't know about the RCF.
I'm running Ferodo DS2500 on the front and Project Mu HC+800 pads on my ISF. The combo is awesome. And so is SpeedFreaks, a forum sponsor.
Lou
Have fires going in many Brake Threads right now...BUT..
That's all I need to see. If Lou says Speed Freak is solid, Im going that route! Actually had a conversation going with Matt there and a very fair offer on what you just said:
-Project Mu .......OR
-Carbontech
I'm gonna pull the trigger on it today after reading this.
Many Thanks Lou!!
So I’m experiencing the same issues. An hour to clean my wheels only to find them covered in dust a few minutes later. My car was CPO and front brakes replaced when I purchased at 15k. 22k miles now. Lots of back and forth in this thread but can anyone say specially which brakes they had their old ones replaced with and how is the dust and squealing issue? My brakes are not terribly noisy. But I do hear some squeak. The dust is my major battle.

As mentioned in many posts, tell the dealer they squeal and they should replace them no questions asked.
The initial bite is slightly less but look forward to a MUCH lower dust condition. Highly recommended. Good luck.
