Default Just Installed Satified Ceramic Pads

My pads were wore down to the slot missing so I decided to try some of the ceramic pads. I got 26,000 out of the stockers. My wheels would be black after about a week. I paid about $60 shipped for the Satified ceramics. Easy install and the brake dust is much lower. The pads have a more progressive feel(not at much initial bite). They came with the shims and some synthetic noise grease.
One word of note, my rotors had a small ridge around the edge of the rotor. It took about 100 miles for this to wear in. It seem these pads are a little taller from inside to outside the rotor. I'm happy with them and would buy them again.

Why didn't you just get the free TSIB brake pads?

They won't replace them if they are worn out. A certain amount has to be left on them.
