Brake pads Brembo or Carbotech

Pads and tyres affect braking the most, the actual discs themselves matter much less. Just get some higher tier metallic brake pads and you should be good. I would go for Brembo Extra pads personally.

As for your question, I have Brembo pads on my M6 and 650i and brake dust is minimal in comparison to these. I still scrub my wheels once a month but it\u2019s a way better interval compared to the old ones.

At 50k, my rotors and stock pads were shot. The brembo pads are very aggressive and eat the rotor quickly. If you are racing or spirited stopping often, they will go quick. I went with power stop replacements and I am very happy. No more rotor click and much less brake dust. I daily drive mine, so most of the miles are pretty easy. 2020 spwb charger.

I’ve used carbotech XP10 for years because it’s the only pad that has never had any of these kinds of problems. Also also swapped between 1521 and XP10 seamlessly. The only time I had a problem like this was when I used some very cheap rotors that couldn’t handle the track abuse, you could actually see the rotor surface getting pitted. Yours look fine by comparison.

For my GR86 Carbotech XP10s have been amazing on the track, seriously no complaints at all. The XP10s with Castrol SRF have been a great combo and held up really well even on some really big/high speed tracks. I swap in my OEM pads when I’m not tracking the car for awhile. It’s not great because I have to bed the pads every time I change them. Once I’m through the OEM pads I’m going to get the Carbotech 1521’s for the street, that way like you mentioned I think I can avoid having to avoid bedding my brakes with every change. The XP10’s function well on the street but they feel a little rough if not up to temp and they are insanely loud.

I personally use Carbotech XP10 for track and Stoptech Sport pads for street on the same rotors

My Polestar 2 has 3 levels of OPD which is awesome. My brakes are still fairly new and I have 34800 miles on it as of today. I very rarely use the friction brakes unless I take it to the track and thats when the Brembos brakes all around really work.

To save you money, they probably did not need to change right rear caliper if only your left one was seized. They also could’ve given you options for prices on brakes and rotors as it appears they quoted you for dealer quality brake pads.

I'm running a Trueno, which has the factory Brembos. With the stock pads at a track with a decent amount of braking demand (at which I've had more severe brake issues in several other cars), I get about half way into a session before they start to fade... not bad, but enough to notice reduced performance (firm pedal, just longer braking zones). There's no doubt that running an actual track pad that's meant for the heat will completely resolve the issue.

Brembos are street pads, they are designed to be low noise and low dust. They’re not for any sort of aggressive driving.
