i would go with the ceramic pads. they don't leave that black dust on your wheels. i used the ceramic pads on our van and glad i did. my buddy got the standard pads on his van and new rotors, his squeaks bad and mine don't. i don't know if it is the pads that cause it but that is the only difference between what we did to our vans.

Exclamation Halt

I use ceramic pads on my daughters Alero and they don't leave any dust on the factory mags and she drives as I do!!

I put on the Summit Brand slotted and cross drilled rotors with Power Stop pads. (black box with blue writing)

The power stop pad wore down pretty quick so I used Bendix pads this time but they are Semi Metalic
