I think you did say that actually.

However you are of course wrong as it is good for those 50 zones.

Graeme, the ceramics will still generate brake dust, just a bit less than the steel ones from what I can see on the front ceramics and rear steel ones on mine.

My daughter was delighted with it.

When I had ceramics I found the fronts were fairly pristine compared to the rears.
