Ceramic Pads

[Dan668]

Brother is replacing his brakes on his pickup, are ceramic pads bad for towing? Boat is a 17'9 Impact with a 115, which does have brakes.

 

Thanks

i have ceramic on my f150 and it breaks fine while towing

depends if the truck came oe with ceramic then it is engineered into the towing/braking if not may effect braking distances, semi-mets usually give better severe service than ceramics at the expense of noise and dusting, also depends on the quality of the pad
