Are you talking about the HP plus? I heard those are the ones that really bite.

Why do you like the hps over the ceramics? I'm looking for a very low dust pad.

+1 Also what's your take on HPS vs HP plus pads?

I have ceramics on one of my cars, and they make no less dust than HPS's do, but don't have as much initial bite or power. Remember these are performance Ceramic, not OEM type ceramics. I've not been overly impressed with them, but we do carry them for those that want to try themselves.

HP Plus... Much more dirty, can squeal, a lot more initial bite and more overall power. I find them to be a little abrupt for my liking. I do not use these generally, I did run a set @ my track day on the rear of the car, while I had HT-10's on the front. Some folks love them, some hate them...
