Brake Pad Wear Question


Does anyone know what the stock brake pads on the 05 Mustang V6 coupe are made of? I have over 65000 miles on the stock pads and they look practically new, not even 50% wear, from mostly freeway driving. The Ford spec's show brake lining both front and back wheels are Akebono BP5142 and BP5016E, material NAO. I could not cross that in the Akebono website but when searched for 05 Mustang it did cross to ACT1081 and ACT1082 pads which are ceramic. Are OE or Motorcraft pads ceramic? When I do replace them I want to replace with OE or equivalent pads, these are great, Ford did good.

BP is ford's part number they use, ACT is what NAPA or autozone would use
