Brake Question

The time is coming when I am going to have to have a front brake job. I have been told to get ceramic brake pads & I guess I will get the rotors done. My question is who do I get the pads etc from that will offer the best value etc. I have seen numerous ads but what are your recommendations? Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated. I have an 05 Kompressor Sport btw. Thanks D

depends on the weather
The most popular and largest producer of ceramic friction material and ceramic brake pads is Akebono.

Their Euro Ceramic Pads are very good offering extremely low dust and good stopping power
