Is there any feedback on disk brake pad material ? Semi metallic vs organic. Rotor wear and stopping power/ distance.

I don't think there are a lot of different options if you are using the 4 piston set up.

Unless you're going to drive it hard-stick with organic.
The new semi-metallic ones (that fit Mopars and AMC) might add a little fade resistance but will also wear the rotors more.

I agree with Ramblinrev.  I use organic pads on the SC and haven't had any issues. I bought them from either Autozone or Oreilly's--can't remember.
