ATE make low dust pads that don’t need warming up like previous ceramic pads. I have them on my MK5 and they are great. Don’t have that annoying instant bite that stock pads do. Also they go forever
Using ATE rotors and ceramic pads on my mk6. Very little dust. Still has very good bite compared to other standard OEM pads.
I was on the hunt for a facelift LT1 car and specifically went after a 95 for the stock bigger brakes and a few other things. I am extremely happy with my purchase and highly recommend.
The brake rotors from the Grand Cherokee and Caprice are nearly the same measurements though so I can mix and match. The bonus is that because of the 1996 Impala SS you can get performance brake pads for the Caprice calipers.
I'm running Redstuff as well - they are OEM compatible.
I don't believe you lose cold temperature bite with good OEM replacement ceramic pads like from ATE.
I have Bendix/Zimmerman rotors and stock ATE/Brembo SM pads and pound the living s**t out of the brakes on Track Days and HPDE ( instructor ). Other than a bit of fade after about 6 laps of HARD braking I've had zero issues. Pad life and condition is still excellent.
I'm definitely sold on ATE parts. They are the OEM on my GTI and have 49,000 miles on all the original pads and rotors, plenty of life left.
There good cars with excellent visibility, but single digit MPG in the city and eats brakes and rotors.
Loose steering, very wallowy, crappy brakes, very much a truck but even teenage me though it felt ancient.
