personally i dont like duralast anything so im assuming their brakes are no different. they claim their cmax ceramics are amazing. ceramic insulated for quite ride. honestly i dont get it what noise do regular pads make ive never heard any noise unless the brakes were broke? if you have the cmax what do you think?

honestly, they are, in 4 yrs this is my 3rd set, when i recently changed my rotors i replaced my second set, and i was amazed to discover that there was half of the pad material left, but i replaced them anyways, i dont have brake dust issues, and brake fade is not there. i wont use any other pads anymore.
