Centric Posi Quiet Semi-Metallic pads
offer a high friction level across a wide temperature range. Very low dust, low noise
w/OE designed composite shims to reduce pad vibration and squeal. Easy on rotors.
Better performance than typical low-dust pads. Give up the dust
without giving up the performance.

Ferodo DS2500 Club Race pads can be
used on the street and for light to medium track duty. Good cold bite,
but can be noisy.
Proper bedding can help reduce this noise. Less compressible than
other pads, giving it excellent pedal feel and good modulation. The
average friction level of about 0.50 remains constant at any speed and at
temperatures up to 1,000 °F, after which it falls off slowly.
Frequently used in the rear in conjunction with Ferodo DS3000 in front.

cars in conjunction with Ferodo DS2500 in the rear. Not recommended
for street use.

Performance, All-Season, and Winter
Tires |
|
Besides brakes, tires are the
most important component in determining stopping distance. It's literally
where the rubber meets the road. Selecting the right tire for your driving
conditions can make a tremendous difference. For example, if you live in
Florida or southern California and are driving on all-season tires, you are
leaving huge performance gains on the table! A good set of summer-only
performance tires can literally transform the handling and braking capabilities
of your car. In fact, if your goal is to minimize stopping distance,
you're better off going to Tire Rack's web site and buying tires first, before
spending any money here on better brakes!
For the best selection and
prices, use the Tire Decision Guide
by Tire Rack. Select the appropriate model year, then click the Go
button. You'll be asked a couple of questions which will help narrow down
your tire choices to the select few which most closely match your driving needs.
From Maximum Performance tires to All Season tires to Snow Tires, Tire Rack has
it all. The Tire Decision Guide takes the guesswork out of buying tires
for your car.
