I can't tell you from experience but I'm in the same scenario that you're in. However I have asked a few ford svt specialists along with a few of my buds and they all say that ceramic is more of a low dust component but it tends to create more brake heat and friction on the rotors and pads and tend to not last as long so ... It depends on how you drive your car

Hawk Ceramics definitely give off less dust than HPS's. But don't mistake "less dust" for "no dust." The ceramic dust you will get is lighter in color and easier to clean off though. No real need for a dedicated wheel cleaner product, your regular car wash soap and a good brush is all you will need (or spray detailer and an old microfiber towel for quick touch-ups).
