Any brake dust on the F Sport wheels?
Sorry if the question seems stupid, but I have to wash the wheels on my Audi practically every other day. The Germans are known for the brake dust. With past Lexuses, this hasn't been a problem. Assuming it still isn't and that the wheels stay pretty free of brake dust? If so, that wil be a huge positive in trading the Audi for the Lexus.

i have the fsport right now, i wash my car weekly and the brake dust is not too bad in my opinion. you wont notice it on the rim unless you really look at it. but i have been driving the car about 200 miles weekly bc i have a 2nd car to drive around.

Great to hear! My Audi can stay totally clean for a week but the wheels are filthy after two days. My G37 Convertible has very little brake dust. Leave it to the Japanese.

For the 4th Gen GS, they have moved on to a MUCH better compound.. Still high performing, but a whole lot LESS brake dusting issues..
So the 4th Gen GS or GS-F-Sport Wheels, will still look clean after 50 miles...
The same will apply on the Next Gen ISx50 and IS-F... For sure..!!!
The COMPLAINTS have been heard & already have been addressed directly with the Japanese Engineers..

To my knowledge... (Based on the GS / IS - High Performance Brake Pad dusting issues)

Yeah, the dust on my 2008 was awful until they released the TSB. They had the brakes fixed by the time I got the 2011....no dust at all. My F-Sport dusts a little more than my 2011, but not bad at all. The color of the wheels helps hide any dust that may be there too.
