Just wondering - can you 'mix and match' types of brake pads / discs.

Example, use the standard manufacturer fitted brake disc but fit ceramic pads (to keep the dust low).

or - use the standard brake pads with coated discs.

and can you put ceramic on the front - and keep the OEM ones on the back?

using for genreal road use. It's the dust that does my head in, plus the discs rusting away.

so would like low dust pads, and maybe coated discs.
