Performance Brake System Parts

Having a fast vehicle is about more than a powerful engine. When you upgrade the performance of your vehicle, you should also consider upgrading your stopping power. Performance brakes provide shorter stopping distances and help ensure that your high-performance vehicle can slow or stop you safely in almost any driving conditions.

Performance Brake Pads, Rotors, and Calipers

Performance brake pads, rotors, and calipers are the foundation for most brake performance upgrades. Upgrading these components can provide the stopping power you demand from your vehicle. One consideration that some owners don't think about when deciding to upgrade their brakes is that most performance brake applications require the brake pads and rotors to reach a specific temperature to achieve optimum performance. If your performance brake pads and rotors are not at the right temperature during operation, your vehicle may not stop as quickly as expected. Be sure you determine the appropriate specifications for your performance vehicle or track car before investing in performance brake parts or other brake upgrades.
