Wouldn't that decrease the effectiveness of the brakes?
sorry, I'm seriously not informed on the technologies available. Harder pads, less brake dust, less stopping power? I'd like to know if there is something out there that performs as well with less brake dust though. Carbon pads? Maybe something in here? http://www.brembo.com/en/Varie/Bremb...sCatalogue.pdf

However, on the street, if never tracked, or braking super hard repeatedly...few will ever notice. Which is why you hear ceramic pads advertised as "same as factory". Robert...you'll want to look into a ceramic pad in general...but you'll get far more details responses from folks other than me! Congrats on your car coming! |

Hey the gunmetal grey wheels will hide the dust pretty well though.

Im getting a good amount of dust not a huge deal but Im also getting some consistent squeaking. I have not gone out and done the burnishing of the pads yets (think thats what it is called). Anyone else getting some consistent squeaking?

Hawks makes a great ceramic for the 5th gen, I am sure they will make one for the 6th. They are less dust but don't track them.

No, they don't. Really. I'm waiting for a set of Hawk ceramics. I had them on my 2012 ZL1. The reduction is braking was neglible.

good to know - I thought the darker color would help but I have to defer.

The biggest consumption of time and distance in stopping is recognition and reaction.

I said this in the racing thread and I'll add it here...I will buy your used OEM pads if under 1500 and just street use. Please PM me if you're interested.
