I really like the Akebono ceramic too but when I lost brake booster vacuum due to a broken vacuum line at the one way valve close to the firewall, i had no brakes. It was like dragging fine china over a piece of steel. If it had happened at high speed, I would have "gone straight in" i.e. 100kph to zero in .02 sec. Semi-metallic for me from now on. I will use an alloy wheel protective spray to facilitate easy cleaning of the rims. I believe Saab continued to specify dusty semi-metallics, maybe because someone there knew of the risk? And they would have since they recalled some 9-3's before their demise for the same issue.
