cost for the standards and delux? Jock

 

I've been running Akebono Ceramic's in my Subaru Forester for two years. For me they are great.

 

how would they do for occasional track days on stock rotors/calipers?

 

Well I don't track my Forester, but do rally it. I haven't faded the brakes with the ceramics. I had managed to do it with the stock pads. They seem to be rotor friendly too. If you track your car, no matter what pads you use.....MAKE SURE THE BRAKE FLUID IS FRESH!!!! Old fluid will boil.... then no brakes.

 

Sounds good - I'll have to give these a try when it comes time to change my pads. As everyone knows, the OEM pads dust like crazy. Any suggestions on rotors to go with these? I'm not looking to track the car, I just want good, quiet, vibration free performance on the road.

TIA,
Rob
