Power Stop Ceramic Pads for TC Fronts?

ZZP is offering these..

anyone here know about these?

Cobalt & Ion ---> ZZ Performance

Z16 ceramic pads offer superior street brake performance for spirited drivers. Power Stop ceramic pads offer quiet, low dust, vibration free operation while maintaining outstanding pads bite at high termperatures. Z16 pads are 100% non-ferrous to eliminate annoying noise from metal to metal contact between the rotor and pad. The pads are easy on the rotor, and built to OEM specifications, slotted, chamfered and shimmed.

I just ordered them. Looks like these are the ONLY ceramics available for the FRONTS on the TC! These are premium ceramic pads and DUST will be minimal.
You can get them from ZZP as well as Summit Racing. For Summit you have to put in the part # 16-1379..it's not in the application menu for our car. I actually got mine here:

These aren't for the TRACK! They're not as aggresive as the HAWK fronts, which are SEMI METALLIC..but they won't dust nearly as much and have the same street bite. I really wanted to cut back on the dusting and this should do that. I think they have a rear pad too, although the Power stop catalouge application shows the WRONG pads for the rears (SC?). I did a search and the part 16-1095 shows up as available and that is a rear TC pad #. They don't show the Cobalt TC here, but it's the same as Solstice GXP..SKY... Saab 2.0T..Volvo and Mazda 3.

LINK to rear pad:

Z16 Evolution Clean Ride Ceramic Pads Disc Rear for VOLVO

I got Wagner Thermoquiet ceramics for the rear (QC1095A)..they're on now and are bithchin'..quiet and stop great..better than the worn stockers. They don't have thse for the FRONTS though.
