Reply To: Ceramic vs semi-metallic pads for SUV driving in Dubai – what’s your pick?

[liamdaily]

Semi metallic having better heat performance sounds compelling for Dubai summers but the heat threshold where that advantage actually matters is higher than what stop and go traffic typically generates. Unless you’re doing a lot of long downhill driving or heavy towing the ceramic pads will handle daily conditions comfortably and your wheels will stay significantly cleaner. That black dust caking the fronts every week disappears almost completely.
