Key Features

  • Z26 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads: Perfectly crafted for muscle cars and high-performance vehicles, these pads provide excellent stopping power.
  • Premium Stainless Steel Shims: Ensures better heat dissipation for virtually noise-free braking.
  • Drilled, Slotted & Zinc Plated Rotors: These rotors maximize cooling efficiency and offer protection against rust and corrosion.
  • High-Quality Stainless Steel Hardware: All the necessary components for a seamless installation.
  • Hi-Temp Brake Lubricant: Included to ensure optimal performance.

Break-In Procedure

To get the best performance from your new brake kit, follow this break-in procedure:

  • Perform 5 moderate to aggressive stops from 40 mph to 10 mph in quick succession, avoiding complete stops to prevent imprinting on the rotors.
  • Next, make 5 moderate stops from 35 mph to 5 mph without cooling the brakes. You may notice a resin smell as the brakes heat up.
  • Finally, drive at moderate speeds for about 5 minutes to allow the brakes to cool, avoiding excessive heat and complete stops during this period.

Never cool your brakes with water, as this can cause damage.
