I just read a few WAY to long threads that were meandering and overly analytical about eurospec, etc...still never got the answers I wanted. Someone spoon feed me.

The 2008 doesn't have the options as much as earlier years from what I can tell. No Hawk LTE options for my year.

Regardless who has the best experience and with what on a 08-09 T2 with low dust. Looking at Pelican Parts and I see about 6 options for the 300mm fronts.

ATE Ceramic: yeah...yeah...yeah I read the post and know how you guys say the sun will explode if get those.
Bosch Euroline
ATE
Pagid
Textar
OEM

As we know the OEMs are unbearble. I can spend an hour cleaning my wheels to have them black again by the next weekend. Don't have this issue with my other heavy trucks!

What do you like for your sanity and stopping power?

I use TRW European spec pads which are equal to OEM performance but with half the dust but I found some premium ceramic pads from TRW on Amazon at a good price. Probably not as good initial bite but TRW makes a good product. .

Good to know. Do you have an estimate of how long they will last? Or is it too soon to tell.
