Tons of black dust? Raybestos
I have used EBC Reds and Yellows, Hawk, Brembo, Power Stop, Stop Tech, Akebono... EBC pads stop my cars in shorter distance than any of those. They are just that good. If you don't mind dust. You claim you don't.
So, EBC Reds stop your car in shorter distances, if you don't mind dust. So, EBC reds make a lot of dust - that's what you're saying here right?
If you are just driving around town in an old car want to keep it clean, just use a good ceramic pad. You claim that's unsafe though.
Wait, now I'm confused. First you say, if I don't mind dust I should use EBC Reds. Then you say, if you're driving an old car and want to keep it clean, use a good ceramic pad. EBC Reds are ceramic pads!
So, which is it? Ceramic pads make a lot of dust? Or ceramic pads are good for keeping your car clean? Pretty sure they can't be both.
As for the rest of it-
I never claimed ceramic pads were unsafe. Read what I said, I never said that. I'm not sure why you insist on putting words in my mouth, because that's a couple times now you've claimed I've said things I simply didn't say.
I also never claimed semi-metallics were best. I actually gave a whole bunch of reasons NOT to run them. They're noisy, they're dirty, and they tear up rotors. EBC even agrees, they say their pads make less dust and prolong rotor life. That's what EBC says, not me, it is part of their marketing. I have run ceramic pads, I didn't like them. That's my own personal opinion based on how I drive my car, I'm not claiming they're better or worse. Just that I personally prefer semi-metallics, and I don't choose my pads based on dust or rotor life (because otherwise I probably wouldn't run semi-metallics).
You say EBC pads are the best, that's great. You claim they stop your car in a shorter distance, so, what is that distance? In feet please. With how much shorter it is than some of those other pads you listed. Thanks, that will be super helpful.
I daily hit speeds of 100 mph on an 6 mile stretch of curvy road.
Um, sorry, but if you do this daily on a public road, shame on you. You're a complete moron if you actually do that, so hopefully that's just more internet bravado from you.
