StopTech Big Brake Kits exceed stock performance in two key areas: First, larger rotors increase heat capacity, allowing a driver to brake harder stop-after-stop with reduced chance of fade. Second, stiffer calipers and stainless steel lines reduce system compliance, providing consistent pedal feel and confidence-inspiring responsiveness.
In contrast, a brake upgrade that adds too much front torque (as many do), will reduce your car's ability to maximize the traction available from all four tires, robbing you of performance. In addition, a system that uses too many pistons or pistons that are too large will make the brake pedal much more difficult to modulate, limiting a driver's control of brake input.
Benefits:
- Less vibration
- Less Noise
- Better pedal feel under extreme braking conditions
- Faster braking response
- Less pad taper
Features:
Aggressive pad for high performance street driving
Para-aramid composites provide linear response regardless of pad temperature
100% positive molded for uniform friction material density
Low dust formulation is rotor friendly and leaves wheels cleaner
Scorched to raise initial cold effectiveness and ease bed-in
100% Asbestos-free formulas
