What up guys, I'm a new V owner and am loving the this car! So much fun to drive! Are any of you 16' owners having slot of brake dust though? I seen to be having quite a bit!

Yes absolutely normal with Brembos you can buy low bust brake pads I put them on my Hellcat and they were a huge difference way less dust
But the pads did not perform as well as the stock pads.

they dust no more than a V2 really.

get some Sonax Rim and Wheel shield. I can usually just pressure wash my wheels and they come 90 percent clean even in the barrels and on the calipers.

Welp! Weather is decent here in Akron, OH today so I am pulling the wheels off the V today 1 by 1 to clean the brake dust thouroly and then Im going to apply some break dust repellant so on the next cleaning hopefully it will be easier to clean.

Well not sure on the V3, but the V2 is 140. Realistically probably anything above 100 is good. Has anyone ever seen a tire place pull out a torque wrench?
