Default Ceramic Brake pads

Does anyone have any experience or knowledge about ceramic brake pads for the Z, i.e. no dusting. I have done a search in the Wheel/Tire/Brake forum and found nada.

Thanks for any input.

Neil

I also have the Satisfied Ceramic Pro pads on my 350Z and they are great, no dust, no sweaks, nothing but CLEAN wheels.

$37 from www.Tirerack.com.

Hawk HPS have a good reputation of not dusting or very very minimal dusting. I hope mine comes in soon.

if you are racing or a very agressive driver that has to slam on the brakes a lot, then the hawk pads are for you(when they are hot they work better). if you drive not so agressively and do not plan on bringing your car to leguna seca i would recomend the satisfied ceramics.
