A non-biased guide for choosing the proper brake pads to fit your needs.

Semi-Metallic:

• Pros: Consistant braking, Affordable, Time proven design
• Cons: Prone to have dust and noise.

Ceramic:

• Pros: Little or No Dust & Noise, Commonly found on more and more new vehicles including trucks
• Cons: None really. Some say a slightly "spungy" brake pedal feeling.

Carbon Ceramic:

• Pros: Strong agressive braking, Low Dust & Noise
• Cons: Very expensive, Slightly higher rotor wear

Severe Duty Truck:

• Pros: Great for towing or frequently stopping large vehicles, Long pad life
• Cons: More expensive, Limited availability

The Breakdown: Our thinking is that the manufacturer knows best. They designed the car and it's braking system. Stick with what the manufacturer put on the car unless you are having a problem. If you need help figuring out what your vehicle has feel free to contact us.
