Ceramic Brake Pads...

...are they worth the extra cost or not. Any harmful effects on the rotors? And, which is the best front brake pad to put on the F-150?

Thank in advance,
Tyman

One thing is that you will no longer have black dust all around the rims. They are more expensive but if you are a nutt at keeping your truck clean like me. they are well worth it.

Well worth it. I put them on at 80,000. Now have 172,000 and still going with no issues. And, boy do I drive. 100 Miles a day and usually at speeds of 75-85 MPH. Hard braking happens almost daily.
