Ceramic or semi-metallic brake pads?
I'm going to replace my brake pads but don't know which ones to use. I've heard that the ceramic pads don't stop as well for the first few stops until they are warmed up. Is this true now or was that just when they started making ceramic pads? We have a steep driveway and I want to be able to stop when backing down it especially in the winter. I had some semi-metallic/kevlar pads on our Discovery and when the brakes were cold it was scary backing down the driveway. I swapped them out with regular semi-metallics.
