The blue M brakes, are they noisy?

Got the blue M brakes since it's available in the US for the MY 2014 for the first time...

I'm wondering, and this is a question for forum members that are in other countries where that option has always been available, if the blue brakes are noisy and produce a lot of dust like the complains I hear all the time about the regular non-blue M Brakes?

Well, assuming they are the same as the M performance brakes, then no they aren't noisy, but they do create lots of dust

US MSport brakes (std) are noisy when new but seem to settle down by 2K miles. Mine did.

i have M Sport blue brake option which is the same exact brakes as the M performance brake kit (minus the drilled rotors) and they are not noisy at all. However, be ready to wash your wheels at least once a week. insane amount of dust. the 19" M sport wheels are a pain to get clean too becuse they have so many tight spokes.

No noise whatsoever with my blue M Sport brakes, but be prepared to clean the wheels frequently.
