Brake pads??????????

[3SGTE@daSpeedof]

Can someone tell me the difference between organic, ceramic, and semi metalic brake pads. What would be best for my car. A 1992 Toyota Celica.

Quotes I've received from one company;
Ceramic
Front $50
Rear $54

Organic
Front $35.50
Rear $38.60

PVR - Semi Metalic
Front $42
Rear $47

ceramic- made of ceramic instead of metal which makes them quieter then semimetallic, less dust particles keeps the wheel clean

semimetallic- squeaks, made of metal, long wear life
