Mine are all Brembo. As in the pads and rotors. I got mine from buybrakes.com.

Do you have disk or drums for rear brakes btw? Either way, here is a shortcut to the nissan section for their rotors.

I'm sure you can figure it out. Any questions just ask.

So , today I was walking in pep boys and saw a solution to your problem. They are called brake dust sheilds. They fit over your rotors and keep all dust behind them . They are black so are harder to see. Maybe not the route you want to go, but a solution none the less. for like 14.00 if i remember correctly. I was kinda checkin out this girl at the same time.(sorry)

yeah, I knew about those....I found something like that for more than $14.00 each, like $85 for the set + shipping and delivery in 2-3 weeks.

see, they're funny how they're made....I only found one company that has my specific need, 6 spoke universal 4 lug brake sheild at 17 x 7.5"

and they're expensive...lol

[thepig333]

wow that's alot. but I guess if it is made for your car, might be worth it. These were pretty much just round black pieces of plastic. I;ll go back and get more info and maybe a pic if they don't bs me about a cam in the store.

One thing I kind of found out on accident was that tire shine does good job of keeping a layer between your wheels and all the dirt, grime and brake dust. Just have to wipe it off with a paper towel whenever it's dirty and looks as if you just scrubbed them down.

hmmm. good to know

[typerx7]

there is a clear coating for wheels (track tested) that advanced auto parts and pep boys sells...i sprayed my si rims and they wipe clean...easily
