Bendix ceramics are OK but the semi-metallic ones are complete pieces of ****! I would order HAWK pads

Ditto. Im running these pads in the front. Pedal fees great. I also picked up some Hawks for the rear from Sam, but I ran out of sweat and time when I was installing the fronts.

$67.50 and not a cheap p.o.s. pad. PBR is the company that built the brakes on the car in the first place (and other likes like the C6 Z06). The factory pads are PBR, but a different and less aggressive compound. The ones I use are quiet. Mine don't squeal either, and they stop better than pads that are specifically engineered to be quiet. These are performance pads that happen to be quiet.

I got MORSE ceramic pads at autozone for about $40 for fronts, very pleased with them.
