How bad do XP8 dust?

If all you want is more friction... XP8 are not the way to go. Their minimum operating temperature is far above ambient. Get them heated up on a twisty road,

Get them heated up on a twisty road, they will work great. At start of taking the car out, if you need a panic stop....they will chatter and not grip. You just have to make a mental note of that, drive accordingly, and you will be fine. My B6 S4 was a fat pig of a car, so just a few stop and they got enough heat in them. It what was shipped in my Alcon brake kit front and rear.
