Ceramic Brake Pads

[KY3TS]

I know that this will be a no no with some, but is anyoneusing ceramic brake pads with the Brembo brakes?If so, which ones? I hate the brake dust.

I don't have the Brembo's but I have X-drilled/Slotted rotors. I'm running Posi-Quiet ceramic pads right now. They have been great and very little brake dust.

Next pads I get will be Project MU. Everyone I know using these love them.

Anyone know about these?-- Hawk Performance. They make a ceramic pad for the Brembos.

Very well known pad. My two gripes are:

A) The brake dust is rust colored. This isn't a big deal, but black dust looks better than rust dust lol.

B) Longevity is questionable. I a rear set of Hawk HPS pads on my coupe about 1 year ago. I've put on 18k miles on it since then and my rears are at 6 mm.*

* I used to use the G for work and had TONS of stop and go driving which may very well have worn the brakes prematurely. Also, getting around 20k out of a set of pads may not be that bad. I'm not really sure as I've used hawks since I started swapping out my own brakes.

Stopping power is good.

Well, I just put the Hawk ceramic pads with slotted rotors on my G coupe. It has the Brembo brakes.I will let you know how they perform, after I get some miles on them.

Hawk are good. Let us know what you think of them.
