If it's dust on the alloy...you could try waxing them so as they have a nice shiney surface

Agree, brake dust does seem bad but my problem is only coming from the front brakes. Rears are just fine. Is it normal for more brake dust to accumulate on the fronts?

I don't usually do a lot of hard breaking and use the gearing to slow me down.

yeah it is normal...purely because the braking ratio is more towards the front...

all depends on your driving style i spose...i'm sure there was a thread around somewhere about brake dust and a suitable pad replacement to cut down on the problem!
