Brake Pads - Ceramicool Vs. Rotex Gold
Any comments? I know the Rotex Gold is well spoken off on the board, anyone tried the ceramiccool pads? Oh, I will be going with the cross drilled Brembos, nice visual, least to say.

Not so great results with my Brembo cross drilled rotors and Axiis Deluxe pads, constant squealing...currently Hawk HPS pads are on and running beautiful.
Share your results with the Rotex Gold if you decide on them.

Right now, I got 47K miles on the original brakes and rotors and the amber brake light starts to flash when I step on the brakes.

So I got my Rotex Brake pads, it looks like the brake wear sensor is built in on the pad. I thought the sensor is a saparate item?
Anyone with any thoughts?

All done
Got the front rotors and pads changed. Actually it was quite a piece of cake.
Took me an hour plus actual work time, spent 2 hrs goofing around cleaning out the rims and all. I was surprised to see mexican made rims are stock for the ML's and KYB shock absorbers? oh well..... made in USA Vs. Germany
