it's just like suspensions, or almost everything car:
- brake performance
- less dust/noise
- pricing

pick either 2 out of the 3.

the ceramic nao is probably cheapest here
brake performance of course not on par with those performance brake pad but IMO better than OEM ones...very grip
and dust definitely significantly reduced, TBH i see none
my intention when i was changing brake pad is the same as TS as well...want dustless

then you sacrifice biting performance. do realize that ceramic based brake pads *TYPICALLY* require warming up before they can fully perform. if you think it bites from the get-go, maybe you never needed the performance in the first place smile.gif

i just drive normal car only, performance no need to be that good
but i found out it is better than the OEM one...so cannot say sacrifice..plus, its quite cheap in price so can't expect much
i've been using it for 2 years already, got no problem with mine though...when i travel, usually travel quite far...so not sure got warm up or not

then it also depends on what OEM, because most foreign makes (nissan sentra, honda civic as examples since i am more familiar with them) already have pretty good stock brake pads. minor to no dust, while having pretty damn good bite. in fact for the civic, there are people who complains that it bites too hard and throws the occupants if the braking is slightly harder than intended.

if you're ok with it, that's that.
do also bear in mind TS never mentioned a specific budget, or what kinda braking needs he require.
