Hey - Let me see...... My first focus went thru the brakes in 40000k but the brake dust was insane :angry: so I got the lower grade ford pads on and the dust was not so bad........

My second focus brakes crapped out at 25000k - they were really sqeeky so i replaced them with WAGNER THERMAL QUIETS (ceramic) and no dust-quick stopping and no sqeeking ...(make sure the garage puts a chamfer on the sides)

My present focus got the WAGNER THERMAL QUIETS as soon as i bought the car... the ford guys thought i was crazy to get rid of new pads right away but the focus brakes(premium) are crap ... the grade lower then premium is better.

The wagners i swear by.

Thought i should voice my opinion.

thanks
craig :D
