I am keeping a close eye on my brakes after reading about the problems people are having with them. My front brakes look fine, but the rears look slightly grooved and the rims have a lot of brake dust on them. Every other car I have ever had always had more brake dust on the front rims rather than the rear. Is anyone else experiencing this?

 

If you've never had a car with 4 wheel disk brakes then that's probably why you've never had the problem. Excessive brake dust is normal for performance disk brakes. I wouldn't worry about it too much. My buddy's EVO has humongous disk brakes and his rear rims are completely covered black in just a few days after being cleaned. Totally worth it though when you can stop on a dime.

Also the rear brakes are solid, as the front ones are ventilated, could account for more accumilation in the rear. Just a hypothesis.
