No, they are metallic pads. Amazon has no clue if you saw them quote the part as ceramic.
There are carbon ceramic replacement pads, but the OEM Ferodo pads are metallic.

They could be the copper free option which still has metallic pads. Take a picture of your brakes.

I am thinking replacing the OEM pads with something that will not produce so much brake dust. I am really surprised how "dirty" the original pads are. I have a little over 1k miles on them and I wonder if the get any better (with respect to the dust they produce) once they wear off a bit more. I wonder how much the difference in the braking power will there be -- if any. I installed the ceramic PowerStop pads and new rotors on my Grand Cherokee and they produce almost no dust. |

Since I'm not tracking the car, PowerStop is a no-brainer. I also feel the stock semi-metallic pads were much harder on my rotors, and my DTV problems are now reduced. |

Front: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AGBXJO6/ Rear: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00Z6LMNBW/ As a personal side note, I'm surprised how many people are infatuated with these low dust brake pads, I honestly wouldn't have expected that from sports car owners. No big deal at all, it's just interesting how much some folks care about a bit of brake dust, especially on otherwise gray (aka "brake dust color") wheels such as the stock 1LE ones. I love the strong initial bite and mind boggling stopping power of these 1LE sized Ferodos, and cleaning wheels is therapeutic anyway.

If they're not too far off on the pricing with aftermarket I'd probably consider getting OEM again whenever I need to change them
