Ceramic Brake Shoes????
What's the story on Cermac Shoes
Do they Cost more?
Do they last longer?
Do they stop better?
Do they treat the rotors better?
Are they a better value for the money?

Re: Ceramic Brake Shoes???? (warpster)
Oldman, there have been a couple fo posts recently on this subject. You could try the search function using the word "ceramic". I found a few for you:
forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id=331089
forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id=331562
I'd say buy them solely for brake dust reduction; most of the other claims are stretching it a bit.
Always nice to see another Buckeye on the forum :cheers:
