Brooklyn Grey G80

The brake dust and frozen finish on the wheels ended up being a bad combo. Even with the ceramic coating, the brake dust seemed glued to the wheels.

Went with brushed clear gloss (which i think looks better than the frozen stone clear imo) and also swapped brake pads. So far dust seems very limited and squeaking is also significantly less. Only ~100 miles in but much happier with this set up.

Last 3 pics are after ~100 miles

Stellar. The wheels are the final word on anything circular. Thanks for sharing!

Love me some R101 lw in any bronze gold or this.

You need some wheel locks. Poor M3 gonna be on cement blocks.
