What is the point of clear brake pads? Some people say that they will keep the paint from turning black on non-machined rims while others say they will turn black regardless due the nature of friction (bunch of science jargon I don't remember.). Have you used them? What'd you think of em'. Marketing gimmick or useful investment for the life of painted rims?
