I fixed the shitty brake situation by installing TRD pads....

However, the resulting in brake dust all over my wheels is a mess.

I saw a video online about Armor All wheel protector...

I bought a can and sprayed my wheels after a car wash....

It really works.....no more brake dust.....

I'm gonna have to disagree. I used this stuff when it first came out. Worked for about a week, then it wore off. I don't agree with buying this stuff constantly just have wheel dust not stick. I'd rather just wash my truck and save the money.

Ive been having some brake dusting issues too, but after talking with Rotora it seems like i was sent the wrong calipers....It has to do with something about rear trailing piston and forward leading piston.. apparently the rotora kits have, on 6 piston caliper, have 3 different size pistons. the largest one is the last to grab. Well in the kit i got its the first to grab...idk but i have another set of correct calipers coming soon. So we"ll see..

If u look close the bottom piston is the larger one of the 2....The rotation of the rotor is counterclockwise

its the only way that i can keep my white rims, white.
I thought about changing to a less messy pad but the trade off is less stopping power. No reason to buy a BBK to get less stopping power.

im not sure white beauty it would be something you would have to look into....and i have no brake fade at all with them and with drilled and slotted rotors i cant ask for a much better setup out of a stock 1piston caliper
