Brake Dust

I am having a constant problem with brake dust. It is so bad that it sounds like my brakes need changing. When I take it to the shop, they tell me my brakes are fine. Has anyone found a solution for this problem? I have a 2006 GS 430, Thank you,http://www

Go aftermarket, I switched to ceramic pads and brake dust isn't really an issue anymore. Not like when I had stock pads.. O_O

I just put the Akebono brake pads on minw 2 weeks ago. I have not had to clean the wheels since. The stopping power feels the same as well.

Are the Akebono ProAct OEM for the 3gs or are they aftermarket? I saw their brochure and it said they are an OEM supplier but doesn't list which brands.
