Actually it is very hot, cant even touch it.
But the dealer said that is normal, nothing to worry.
Confused.....

It's just the heat transferring from the brakes.

Same setup as you?Do your brakes function fine?
No other issues at all?Quite strange

Alloy wheels make better heat sinks compared with steelies
