Mine is real dusty on the front rims and some on the rear rims as well. I will see how the performance holds up as pads and rotors wear out. So far real good. This is the best alternative other than upgrading my QX50 to the Akebono system because doing so would require me to switch to different wheels, something like the Q50 OEM sport wheels.... More money, not worth it for just 340 hp and a 4000 lbs crossover. The current set up is good enough for street and spirited canyon driving...

The pads work GREAT on the Power Wagon. It has 35" tires, weights 8,000 lbs, and I was towing a 10,000 lbs camper before I traded the camper in for a motorhome.
