How easy is it to clean brake dust from wheels, with the following pads – compared to the OE pads?
Pagid Blues, DS2000, DS4003.

Which pads make least mess of your wheels, and which are the worst?

Got EBC greens in my fronts (admittedly Wilwood calipers) and there is zero brake dust! Which is a damn good reason for me to keep using them as I hate cleaning my wheels...

I have DS2000 in my Alcons and they produce tons of brake dust with road driving and even more round Donington!

Lots of brake dust with Pagid blues, but they don't half stop you, especially with uprated discs.
( If you give your wheels a quick wipe when you are waxing the car it makes cleaning them a lot easier. )
