    whatever you prefer. .. i ran OEM pads for 65,000 miles on my Rotora's and they seemed fine..

    I use ceramic. They work just fine. I haven't had any problems when suddenly braking.

    What's the difference between semi-metalic and ceramic pads, and what kind of material is the best for brake pads?
