From what I know the semi metallic pads will give good stopping power under normal driving (street) and have the least wear to the rotors. Metallic pads offer better agressive stops(less hard braking fade) with more wear to the rotors . The ceramic pads ,I would think , require a specific rotor as they need a considerable amount of heat in the pad to work properly.
