Yes, and they will make more dust than the 00-03 pads too.

I assume it's pretty neglible on the street. With that assumption, I'll probably use the AP1 pads on my AP2 when the time comes due to the lower dust output of the AP1 pads.

Hmm... is the brake dust significantly less now with the AP1 pads?

Maybe I'll do it now instead of waiting until my until my current ones are due for a change.

What's the going rate for the AP1 pads?
