Does GM make ceramic pads for SS?

I am sick and tired of cleaning my FRONT wheels from brake dust! Does GM or aftermarket make anything?

Thanks guys. I use the HHR for daily driver so I get alot of brake dust. I use GM ceramic pads on the Vettes and switch to more aggressive pads for the HPDE. Looks like Autozone.

That is funny. I keep the Vettes in the garage so they don't need washing quite that often.

But it doesnt say a thing about if its for the HHR/SS thats the whole thing?

I guess you could always do this as well?

Where this one says it is for the HHR/SS maybe you should look into it before you get them make shure they fit:

And here's another couple of links from another place that actually says HHR/SS front and rear pads....
http://www.partsamerica.com/productd...pe=219&PTSet=A
http://www.partsamerica.com/ProductD...pe=220&PTSet=A

For $20.00 more I'm going with EBC greenstuff whats $20.00 more when you know your getting better quality brake pads....Just my .02 worth
