Im lost and in need of advice. I was looking to see what front pads were available for my 73 914 and there were too maybe to choose from. I was wondering if anybody has any insite on these pads. Do the pads need to come with shims or not? Also is ceramic pads a good choice or just go with semi-metallic? and which brand is perefered? All advice is welcomed and thank you for the help.

Thanks. Price isn't an issue since my family owns a shop I get everything wholesale. All the brake pads shown are under 20 a set. Thank you again though.
