^The brake dust is because of the pads and not the rotors IMO. If you feel any vibrations while braking at speed, don't see any deep "ukit" on the rotors, and if the rotor thickness is still good then your rotors should be fine. Hindi naman kumakapit yung brakes?

Sir Vinj, pag pinapa-slide ko ung daliri ko sa rotor disc makinis naman, hindi din kumakapit ung brakes. worried lang kasi ako baka naman mabilis maupod ang brake pads, or talaga bang malakas mag brake dust ang OEM?

they are now using different type of materials for the brake pads. that is the primary reason for the fast rate of brake dust accumulation.

i got replacement pads. 50% cheaper. no difference in performance to me.
and don't mind the dust. i would be surprised if there weren't.
kapag na-upod nang mabilis, wag mo nang kunin ulit yung tatak na yun.
heh heh.

you have to make sure that the rotor is the problem

I think so too, bro.

For our GS,- 15KKm pa lang,- palit na ang OEM brake pads (front- disc).

Pero, itong nabili ko sa Goodgear, na supposedly ay OEM din,- walang masyadong brake dust.....

I just noticed that the OEM pads on our 2009 Innova are quite brake dusty...

Observe ka ng ibang Rav. May mga ilang brand din na napansin ko na malakas mag brake dust ang OEM although i have not encountered it on our Toyotas unless i use Bendix Metal Kings. Kung makinis pa rotors mo and there's no signs of warping then there's no need to reface.
