Rear Brakes...

[RickSvt]

Now I know that its not only me who is hating their rear brakes. There is too much brake dust, has anyone found a cure to this problem yet, replaced their pads with a better brand, anything??? Thanks

Mine don't dust much at all. Weird.

Holy brake dust! I have a small Claifornia Duster just for my wheels. I gotta hit the rears at least every other day. I've heard of people swapping them out, but then ending up with brake pads that squeek.

What about the EBC Greenstuff pads, how are those???

Ford made a big deal about "upgrading" the rear brake pads on the 2003 Cobra. I think they were essentially made soft to allow burnouts. If you change to a higner friction or harder pad it might be cleaner and work better on the street and road course, but I wonder how it would react to a burnout.
