  • Silent brake pads.

    I want very quiet pads with the smallest amount of brake dust.

    Ive heard Ceramic are good for that, but might be damaging to stock rotors.

    Ive also heard good things about KVR Carbon Fiber Metallic Pads

    I want to stay around $50-75 pricewise.

    I was talking to this guy about pads, since I am about to buy some, and he said the ceramic ones will damage the rotors. Like, the pads will last a really long time, but when you get new pads you will have to get new rotors too. They are a really hard pad that need a lot of heat (from what I understand so far) which is why a lot of people run slotted rotors with them.
    I went with the KVR Carbon Fiber Metallic pads... except my brother has the same kind of pads on his nova, not KVR brand though, and they squeek sometimes, other times they don't. His Nova isn't a daily driver though, so the pads may be getting a little glazed over from not being used.... I dunno.

      I had Ceramix on my stock rotors for 2 years now, and no damage/warpage whatsoever. I also like the part where I don't have black brake dust coated rims after driving 50+ miles.

        Ceramic pads also will not stop very well (or at least not at full potential) until they are heated.
