We have a MKVI GTI (2012) and the brakes are terrible. Just took delivery of a MKVII R (2019) and the brakes are vastly improved... with one exception. Brake dust is ridiculous. [Englishtown wheels]
We also have a 2016 Z06. The OEM pads generated a tremendous amount of dust so we switched at 500 miles to Powerstop. They are imported and not suitable for the track but for $132 total material cost, brake dust went to almost nothing with minimal loss of performance on the street.
I have done some searching on this forum but information is sparse.
What are the options for low brake dust pads on the MKVII R?
I understand that some may be content with washing their wheels more frequently, or skeptical that a viable alternate exists. I'm not in that camp. There is usually a better way. Thanks in advance for your insight.
