No more brake dust?

My service writer was kind enough to order the slotted rotors and pads. Hadn't been able to drive very much since the install because of snow & ice, but this weekend did some 40 miles around town and no brake dust! Previosly the wheels would have been filthy. The braking is really improved as well. A very positive pedal feel after i "bedded" the new rotors. A little scary on the first stab.

Centric Posi Quiet 104 pads, for front and rear. Best thing I ever did. No squeal at all and the dust is sooooooooooooooooooo much less. Wish I got them sooner.

I ordered some last night, now all I have to do is get the TSB done. Hope to have it all done by the end of the week. I really can't believe how bad the brake dust is right now, I've cleaned the wheels twice already (I've only had the car for a week) and the rims are black again. I love the car but I'm disappointed with the brake dust.

New pads from Zeckhausen going on the MSRT8 tomorrow morning at my local dealer! I asked them to let me have the rims while they're off so I could scrub 'em good and put some sealant on them for the future.

The posi-quiets are awesome. I hated cleaning my wheels every other day. I can go for a month without cleaning the wheels now and still not have as much dust as the OE made in 3 days. Yes I went 30 days w/o washing them, it was cold and I cant do cold weather at all.

Did any of you notice a difference in pedal pressure after install of the Centric PosiQuiets? Just got to work after the install at the dealer and the pedal is definately softer, even after bedding the pads well.

I still think it stops aggressively, just the pedal seems to go down noticeably further than before to where resistance pressure if felt.
