Have basically a rebuilt/new system. Used the standard pads from AR. The dust is crazy.
Has anyone used the ceramic and had better luck? Or any other?

Re: best brake pads.
Whenever I need a brake job on any of my vehicles I insist on Akebono if they're available. They are soooo much less messy compared to stock BMW or Tacoma. Not sure of they are made for Fiat or not though.

Re: best brake pads.
Geo, this is one of those questions where if you get 8 replies, you'll have 10 different opinions. 
I have used semi-metallic pads in the past, they seemed fine, and I am not particularly brand sensitive. But, I tend to be a pretty stodgy driver. To my knowledge, I have not used ceramic pads.
