I went with Hawk ceramic pads. LOVE them due to the significant reduction in brake dust on rims.

I've just put the first 100 km on my new ATE coated rotors and Textar pads from Pelican (rear set). So far so good

Bosch pads

Last fall (50k miles) I replaced (original?) Brembo pads w/ Bosch. They do not make contact w/rotor to the outer edge which leaves about 1/8" of surface rust showing on Rotors...They stop just fine but suck astetically..Would buy the Brembos if I could do over...

Do you have the part number and which line it is? My department and I would like to investigate this.

Thanks
