    My stock pads creates so much dust that I have to have the car cleaned every other day I drive the car. It is pearl white so the back ends shows terribly and the wheels gets the blunt of it. Is their a distributor that anyone can direct me too? Thanks

    do you know a part #? any chance it matches a BMW part (i.e. from a 7 series)?

    if there isn't a part commonality with something higher-volume (and more performance oriented), there probably isn't an aftermarket for something as low volume as a Phantom.

    alternately, depending on the wheel, you might be able to put shrouds behind the face of the wheel to cut down on some of the dust.

    Thanks Guy...

    You are probably right on the 7 series. I did find Disc Italia Hyper Ceramics. I posted this on the Technical section too.

    Lol every Phantom I see has dirty wheels. Do they use a different compound in Europe?

    I found Carbotech that will make me a Kevlar/ceramic pads. Less dust supposedly.

    Can't speak for all RR but mine sure does get dirty. All the MB and BMW's I had all produced a lot of brake dust.
