I'm running mid grade pads....I'm very happy with them...they're semi-metalics....but if you're looking to combat dust build up then Ceramics are the way you need to go. They stop better, quieter...and keep your wheels a lot cleaner.

i thought ceramics were supposed to stop worse without slotted rotor, especially when wet. However i've got ceramics in the front and absolutely love them for not having dust. Stopping power feels the same.

from wat I hear.. ceramic pads are harder on the rotors or OEM style rotors.. thats why it'* said to go with slotted rotors.
So you may warp and or shorten the life of the rotors
