About E60 brake pads.The rims on my E60 get dirty (black dust/stain) just after a few trips to the office. And I'm pretty much fed-up having to clean the rims every day! I notice that most of the E60s out there have the same blackened/dirty rims...<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />I asked some mechanics, and they told me the same thing: it is NORMAL, because of the brake pads.... (However, for comparison purpose, I never have this problem on my Toyota Camry..)Qs:1.) Is this true? The BMW brake pads shed out black particles which end up sticking on the rims at every braking?2.) Would this be related to only a certain brand / type of brake pads?3.) Is there any other brand / type out there which wouldn't give out this dirt? If there is, are they better (in performance) and/or higher in price?For your feedback/insights, I thank u in advance.<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
