Anyone with carbon ceramic brakes?

If you have carbon ceramic brakes do they ever sound like they are grinding? Almost a metal to metal sound? The previous owner had the pads replaced, the rotors look like new.

I did one run to 150mph, didn't brake very hard.

If I get them hot they stop. It's not a squeal.

Does anyone make aftermarket pads for the carbon brake setup? Perhaps he used cheap replacements.

Thanks for your input.

Pads

My bet they put wrong pads or aftermarket. Never any grinding from mine. I’ve had many sports/luxury vehicles and tried after market pads on many. In every situation the stock pads were far better.

Big ask for anyone with carbon brakes. Could someone pull a front pad and tell me what's on the back?

Mine have "JURID" on the back and I'd like to verify they are OEM.

Thank you!
