Ceramic Brake pads
Was thinking of getting ceramic brake pads and using the stock ones as extra since they kick up a lot of dust.

I've been recommended the following by a "racer" friend of mine and wondered if anybody else can include more suggestions?

Hawk Performance Ceramic

Raybestos STS

Axxis Ultimates

Thanks,

Tim
