New Brake Pads

[johnpbaird]

Just purchased some Brembo Drilled Rotors, and as all of you know, the factory pads are D-I-R-T-Y!

Any suggestions on what type of new pad will serve me best?

Metallic or semi metallic work but chances of squealing. Ceramic will give the best performance but are the hardest. Eventually something has to wear. Ceramic you have better chances of grooving the rotors. Metallics lots of dust and chances of squeaking if driven hard. Your preference.

I've always been partial to Wagner Thermoquiet pads. Definately stay away from the cheaper, store brand pads... all they do is squeak, squeak, squeak.

I have a set of Ceramic pads installed, now for about 7K miles. They stop well and leave a minimal amount of "dust" on the wheels.

I installed ceramic pads (Redstuff 3000 series) about 2k miles ago and they work great with the drilled and slotted rotor. Very little or no dust.

I agree with Paul, I put on Redstuff pads. They squeal for about 500 miles, then nothing. Like they say, the hotter they get the better they work. Also, very little dust, I'm sold!
