They are ceramic compound, you can get them at tirerack.com.
They are certainly impressively dustless and squeak free, but Im not sure I like them that much, as they have less bite and require more pedal effort when cold than the stock ones, and i dont just mean the first time you use them in the morning, I mean unless you are throwing the car down a country road with the brakes getting hot. The EBCs are apparently even worse in this respect, but both offer less fade so make your choice.
Personally I never found the stock pads to fade much, and as I said I like their initial bite, but hated the dust. Next time I will try the PBR metalmaster pad, which Ive had a good experience with on my BMW - it gives you stock response but no dust.
