I recently replace my stock pads on my 04 Z16. I couldn't stand the excessive dust of the stock pads. My Z has only 6800 miles on it. I compared the new pads to the stock for thickness. The stock pads looked as thick as the new ceramic pads. Swapping pads was a breeze, way easy!!!! For all you guys running the chromies on your Z06's, I would recommend the ceramic's. My wheels looked awesome all day while I went cruisin this past saturday. Got my ceramic's from GM PARTS DIRECT.
I replaced my stock pads with Wilwood Ceramics and absolutely love em'
It's amazing the difference in dust and not having to wash my wheels every time I drive around the block.
As far as I'm concerned, it's well worth the initial added cost vs. having to constantly keep cleaning the wheels everytime I drove my car!
