2NH Redstuff or Hawk Ceramic??
Need new pads soon and I'm very fed up with the OEM dust lol
Any input on ceramic pads on the 2NH? My car is 100% street driven and the hardest driving it ever sees is whenever I push it on a canyon. Currently debating between Redstuff and Hawk Ceramics so lmk what y'all think! Also, does anyone know if the wear sensor will work with either of these pads?

Neither.
CarboTech 1521, accept no substitute. If you do a search on these pads you'll find MANY very happy users, including myself. They aren't track pads, but they can handle the canyon runs, and The Dragon, no problem. The stock wear sensor works with these pads as they use the stock backing plates. They require no bed-in, just 300 easy in-town miles. They DO require you to remove your stock rear shim and put it on the rear pads if you don't want that forward/backwards clicking sound. Fronts do no require the shim. https://ctbrakes.com/choosingcompounds/ |

Between Redstuff and the Carbotechs, I'd get whichever is cheaper. I own both. KNS brakes is a good source for the CT pads.

Is there not much of a difference between the two? All I really care about is lowering the dust levels as much as possible tbh - the 2nh brakes are already more than engine power for me

I couldn't believe how much less dust there was after a track day running the XP12. I plan to switch to their street pad over the stock pad.
