i just bought a set of all ceramic pads, they rock they provide more feedback and less fade.

WHat brand/model.
I changed my fronts out and went cheap way earlier this year. The cheap pads give me a ton of dust, which sucks on our rims.
Ive been considering buying some Ceramics for about $30 a pair from Rock Auto. Just not sure if all ceramics are created equal. Theres an obvious issue when there are more price differences. But wheres the point of diminishing returns? Thats where I want to be.

if you go to autozoneand get the performance ceramic pads...they will last longer then a few pairs of rotors...they are very hard and you will stop very fast.. a buddy in the back seat learned that the hard way. lol
i think they run for our car around 40 bucks :)

I just got brake pads replaced on my car and they like to make noise when the rotors are heated up.... It sucks big time... especially when I'm stopping at the security gate to get in... lol hurts their ears...

im using hawkes performance pads paired with power slot rotors. Way less fade and when you have to brake hard they respond well!

Just got done with my brakes today. Front pads are Morse Ceramics. They have a split to them.
Also had to buy new rotors, so I got the cheap china ones as thats all I could afford at this moment...
Not to impressed at this second. Maybe its cause they are still new.
