Your problem is not so much the rotors as it is the pads. The stock pads make tons of sudt, but are also quite hard and appear to wear the rotors more than on many other cars. If you switch to the EBC gReen Stuff brake pads on the front, you will get a lot less dirt and dust, as well as extend the life of your next set of rotors. There are other rotors available in the aftermarket such as Brembo, but now you are delving inot the world of the unknown as far as switching two critical components. Many other posters on this board have reported on the results of just switching to the EBC pads, and all have reported good results. I have not read any where both pads and aftermarket rotors were used. There is always a chance it would be a beneficial swap, but do you want to be the Beta test site for this?
