My experience with Raybestos ceramic pads on my 03 sedan has been horrible
no noise, no dust and no bite, almost rear ended someone again yesterday. My wife who drives a 2000 BMW 323 used my car and said whats up with those brakes.

I did a lot of reading and will be going back to OEM pads thanks to Qtech45, I don't mind the dust to get some bite. Do I really need OEM discs
or can I just buy a good quality disc locally..they always seem to have 2-3
different grades to choose from.

Guess I will go back to OEM discs as no one has chimed in.

I've not had a problem with Ceramic pads. They bite as well as the others for me. I do have cross drilled rotors though. Don't know if that changes things
