Search this forum this category all forums for All words Any words Whole Phrase (search options) Auto Repair Home>> Automotive Repair>> Brake Repair Help mickeyrory New User Jun 3, 2018, 3:24 PM Post #1 of 4 (1283 views) Ceramic Brakes Sign In I've read about the difference between Ceramic and metallic and semi-metallic brakes. I've decided on ceramic but on Amazon or in an auto parts store the selection is basically, "do you want to pay this much, or that much?" There is a wide range of prices for ceramic brake pads when I compare, for example, an AC Delco number 12345 to AC Delco number 12346. What exactly makes one ceramic pad more expensive than another? Should I use the price to assume what the quality of the pad is?

Just once, those wore out in no time but didn't make brake dust and cost more is all. Maybe there's stuff that meets OE specs (these parts have to) and are better just my experience is reasonable quality to OE specs work best still. AYOR if they do as advertised for you, T Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Jun 4, 2018, 6:08 AM Post #4 of 4 (1258 views) Re: Ceramic Brakes Sign In There are many,many cars that use ceramic pads as OEM. The only situation that I wouldn't use them is if the vehicle is used for towing. They resolve a lot of the issues that metallic and semi-metallic pads cause. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
