Brake Dust
Standard wheels on our Petrol S and yes, brake dust "heavy" at the best of times, even on a routine semi-urban commute. Big discs probably don't help, but the alloys could use a "Teflon" finish like many other luxury cars.
Petrol S delivered Apr 16
Yep, loads of break dust. Every time. I'm blatting on the autobahns at the moment for the German leg of a road trip. It's even worse breaking from high speeds. I was on the Leipzig track this morning and the wheels were dusted but not filthy after pushing a hired Cayman for an hour. Could it be the material used for the pads?

I wonder if these carbon wheels gather brake dust....

Yes, indeed!
I think that most people who spec PCCBs do so for the looks and the fact that they keep the wheels cleaner for longer. I would think that very few actually drive in that small window, probably on a track, where they would really appreciate the performance of PCCBs over the already excellent standard Porsche brakes.
