ok im tired of the dust and squeeeeeek.

Looking at 3 sets that i can only find currently anyone got any experiance with these or opinions helpful.

1. disk italia titanium kevlar pads (Fronts $98) (Rears $70) material self explan.

2. Porterfield pads (Fronts $90) (Rears $90) Material is unknown probably metalic, carbon ect.

3. Powerstop pads (Fronts $72) (Rears $70) Material is ceramic

Leaning towards the powerstop but any imput would be helpful on these pads. Oh and i dont want performance friction they still squeeeek and dust like the oems in my opinion.

Thanks in advance guys:)
 
I have tried EBC's and took them off and went to Performance friction, which works very well, good stopping and virtually no dust.
 
FstJack, went to explore Performance Friction and this is what their site says:


"You have selected the following:
Year: 2004
Make: DODGE
Model: RAM 1500 PICKUP
Engine: SRT10 505 8.3 FI


We are sorry, but no products were found that matched the vehicle you submitted"

Do you have a part number?

Performance Friction carbon metallics. 0965-20 fronts and 0702-20 rears. No more dust and no more squeel. Got mine from Autozone. Roughly $50 per set.

Don't settle for anything less.;)


They don't show up because they are listed as the Ram 2500/3500 pads, which are the same brakes that are on the 04 RAM SRT-10s.

Good timing on your post. I have to pick up one of our pets from the vet this afternoon, and Autozone's next door AND they a set in stock!:rock:
 
you guys may not remember the post. It was almost 2 years ago. Within 3 yr/36 Dodge will replace your brake pads with ceramic's. They did for me. The dust was gone!
 
Tried EBC greens and they were no better than stock. Went with EBC reds and they are better but still see some dusting. The brakes subjectively feel better than the stocks or greens.

Does that mean that these wont work on a 2005 QC? If not does anyone know what the part numbers would be for the 05? I really want to get rid of this dam dust.
