With the Baer Sport-Touring, they are track ready however they don't put the dust out that alot of high performance pads do. I ran these with my stock calipers and now with my 13" track kit and am pretty pleased. The only downside to them is that they aren't the cheapest pads around. The GM Ceramic blend ones are slightly cheaper and very similar.

So the GM pads would be available at a dealer I take it?

Yes. I had the GM version with my stock rotors and then a new set when I got my Baer Decelarotors. Now I have the Baer Sport-Touring and they are similar.

I would need to see what the GM part number is again...don't have it off hand.
