They are NOT Ceramic. They call them Ceramic like. read the details. True ceramic is a big mistake for HD applications.
Proper pads are SemiMetallic of HIGH quality as in not the CHINESE POS PADS that they install.
Kevin at Kodiak told me that they did not sell any QUALITY pads because no one wanted to pay the price and to go to NAPA or the like and buy HD SemiMetallic pads.
Whatever. been running EBC CERAMIC pads for a while now and drilled and slotted rotors as well.
Don't know who Kevin is and don't much care. Opinions are like but holes, everyone has one, some stink some don't.
Once I switched to CERAMIC pads, my brake dust issue vanished and I have had ZERO issues with stopping, pad squeal or rotor wear.
Just this afternoon put a set on my wife's Suburban.
I don't concern myself with cost, I get them at cost.
Don't much care if you drill a hole in your floor and jam a stick into the pavement to stop. All I said was, to eliminate brake dust. switch to CERAMIC pads.. Nothing more.
Do what you want to but don't whine about brake dust.
