Have a friend with a 2009 duramax. He says he gets at least 150k miles on a set of brakes.... dunno if he's full of it.

I've never seen dust on my wheels either.........

jcain · Jul 7, 2015

I've got no dust either, just over 60,000. Interestingly enough, my back brakes are due to be changed but my fronts look good

It drives me nuts on my '15.
This is about 500 miles after a full detail...the front wheels are trashed already.

Unbroken,

That's exactly how my wheels look after just a little bit of driving. It's horrible and the Black wheels just seem to amplify the brown/rust color.

I pay extra every week at the detail shop for them to wash the inside of the wheels too....dust free brake pads would be cheaper in the long run.

You get your truck detailed every week?

UNBROKEN · Jul 7, 2015

Well...yea. LOL
I like it clean and I don't like cleaning it.

TyCorr · Jul 7, 2015

Not the platty...its filthy!

UNBROKEN · Jul 7, 2015

It gets detailed every Friday if it's not raining so it's minty fresh for those weekend mall runs.

TyCorr · Jul 7, 2015

Hell yea. I wouldnt even drive through a puddle.

jcain · Jul 7, 2015

Thanks for the brakes reminder. I forgot that when I bought my truck they threw in the wheel/tires/brakes plan to sweeten the deal. So I got a full brake job at Ford for free today.

On my GT500s I used Autozone Duralast Gold pads. They hardly dust at all and have great stopping power.

This. I have the dura last golds on my 6.4 for around 1k miles now and no noticeable dust and no washing. Just some rain days here and there.. Just put wheels on my 6.7 and made a 500+ round trip and my front wheels looked brown.. Not sure what pads are on it now but it will have dura last gold soon.

They must have put ****ty pads on the '15s.....

Jomax · Jul 8, 2015

Mine isn't too bad. Wheels are clean and will be towing 14k to CA. I'll snap a pic after I get back home. It'll be about 800 miles round trip.
