Default Re: Aftermarket Brake Pads


Not very related to the topic....but here's a good information that I
got from a very experienced member on my civic forum........

Provided by Zzyzx of 7thgencivic.com

heres a quick summary:

1. Cross drilled rotors DO NOTHING to improve braking or Reduceing
Brake Fade.
2. Cryogenically Treating Rotors does nothing.
3. Changing the rear drums to Disks may actually Hinder braking.
4. Big Brake Kits in the front (Only) may also Hinder Braking.
5. Big brake kits can wreak havoc on ABS systems causing a measurable
increase in stoping distance.
6. your tires may be the most important part of your braking system
(After all you can only stop as quickly as your tires will let you).
