i recently installed the GM perf parts ceramic pads, front and back. I like them in my street C5, very little dust. THe stock pads were also fine, and lasted 20k miles.

I bought the pads and new rotors from GMParts. com a forum vendor

I run stock Z06 pads for my HPDE events, but they really create a lot of dust. My street pads are the GM ceramics. The dust is so light it seems like there is none. Got mine from Gene at Fred Beans, also a forum vendor.
