one of my wheels is almost black. I'd be happy if my wheels only had that amount of brake dust on em.

I can attest to that my previous bmw would have more than the OP after a day. No joke.

that's not too bad.. pretty "Clean" for 1 month of no wash..
too bad I don't have a pic when I had the 2k3 rims, I had ****ty pads on them, and my rim look as if they came OEM gun metal as opposed to Titanium

I've seen worst... Most common car I see is the Lexus IS. Their brake dust is so horrifying that it totally discolor the wheel from silver to graphte.

all those dust composites slowly eat your paint away so best not to leave them on a long time

Those are drum brakes, I don't think a lot of brake dust escape onto the rim.
