These are supposed to be low dust, I am not sure. You can see the photos below rear wheel with EBC Red Stuff and after that the front wheel with Ferodo Racing normal (not low dust) pads, I can't see any difference can you? This is around one to two weeks after cleaning.
For those of you using EBC Red Stuff have you noticed a difference?

EBC Red Stuff Brake Pads
Cleaned after initial bed in, correct? If it was then yes, it looks worse, which could be down to how the pad accumulates on the wheel material. My street pads dust everywhere, but with my track pads, the dust clumps up into a pea sized drop keeping the rest of the wheel clean.

EBC Red Stuff Brake Pads
Can't see it myself.
Looks like road dust looking at direction of travel.
I know standard discs and pads are well known for dust, few days my car wheels were black.
But last several years have slotted drilled discs and ebc green stuff.
Probably take 2 months to get would i would see in a week with standard pads.

I see what you mean - the red stuff has clearly stuck all around the edge of the rim.
That's going to be a hell of a job to get back to black.

Not all the dust is from your pads of course, some of it is from the actual brake disk.

True but still since the rears supposedly have low dust and the front don't you would think there would be a noticeable difference.Rockhopper wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2024 1:07 pm Not all the dust is from your pads of course, some of it is from the actual brake disk.
