StopTech Street
Performance brake pads are StopTech's
newest formulation, offering an unusual combination of high bite, low noise, and extremely wide temperature range, making them ideal as "dual use" street to medium track pads.
These are the standard brake pads for StopTech's big brake upgrades and have
recently become available for many OEM applications. These are Zeckhausen
Racing's new preferred high performance street pads.

Axxis ULT street pads
pads (formerly called Axxis Ultimate) use a Kevlar®
and ceramic formula for enhanced performance. They produce maximum
friction when cold, yet have tremendous fade resistance up to 932 °F. The
coefficient of friction is high enough to produce a noticeable reduction in
pedal effort. Fine for autocross or your first
track event, assuming street tires and a low horsepower car.

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.

Hawk HPS high performance street pads have
low dust, low noise, and low rotor wear. Slightly higher in friction
level than Hawk Ceramic pads with a similar MOT of
around 750°F. Not recommended for track use, as their
friction level falls off rapidly when the MOT is exceeded.

Hawk HP PLUS high performance street pads have
moderate dust, moderate rotor wear, very high initial bite and similar MOT
to Hawk HPS of
around 750°F. They tend to be noisy, sometimes squealing under light
braking, although
proper bedding can help. Ideal for autocross.
Not recommended for track use, as their
friction level falls off rapidly when MOT is exceeded, just like the
Hawk HPS.

Hawk HT-10 Race pads have good
modulation and release characteristics, making them ideal for the
"weekend warrior." Moderate rotor wear, moderate dust, a stable torque
curve, above average bite, and a MOT of 1,400°F. Recommended for the
front of front-engine cars for casual track use, as well as for the rear of club
race and professional race cars.

Hawk HT-14 Race pads are more
aggressive than HT-10. Very high average torque output, slightly
rising over its temperature range and a MOT of 1600°F. Even with its
high torque output, it retains good modulation and release characteristics
and moderate rotor wear. Recommended for the front of front engine
race cars in conjunction with HT-10 in the rear.

Hawk DTC-70 is the most serious member
of the "Dynamic Torque Control" race pad family, with an average level of friction among the highest
available and an incredibly linear pressure to torque relationship. The
result gives the driver an unparalleled ability to modulate
brake torque at the limit of tire adhesion, while keeping pedal effort low.
Relatively low rotor and pad wear for such an aggressive pad.

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.

Ferodo DS3000 Race pads have very high
coefficient of friction of about 0.62, a flat torque output over its operating
temperature range and very good modulation characteristics. Frequently used in the front of front engine
cars in conjunction with Ferodo DS2500 in the rear. Not recommended
for street use.

PFC
97 Race pads have medium to high
average torque output, a very flat torque output over its operating
temperature range and a MOT of 2000°F. Exceptionally low
pad and rotor wear and excellent modulation and release characteristics.
Popular for the front of front engine cars driven at
lapping and open track days. Often used on the rear of club and pro-level race cars
with PFC 01 in front.

PFC
01 Race pads have very high
average torque output, rising over its operating
temperature range, and a MOT of 2000°F. Excellent bite, low
rotor wear, and average pad wear. Novice drivers may find this pad
challenging to modulate. Pad of choice for top race teams and our
favorite due to overwhelming positive feedback and few complaints of judder. Frequently used in the front of front engine
cars with PFC 97 in the rear.

Titanium Backing Plates
Drivers with competition tires and heavy, powerful cars can experience fluid fade and destruction of
caliper dust boots and piston seals, even after the installation of a big
brake kit.
These titanium inserts are installed behind the pads, dramatically reducing heat transfer
to the calipers. This helps prevent dust boots from vaporizing and
reduces the
temperature of the brake fluid. They are especially effective when the
pads have worn by 50 percent or more, since worn pads provide less thermal insulation between the rotors and calipers.

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, we recommend Tire Rack.
From Maximum Performance tires to All Season tires to Snow Tires, Tire Rack has
it all. Tire Rack also offers wheel and tire packages and can even tell
you which wheels will clear your StopTech big brake upgrade. Click the
Tire Rack icon below for your best deal on wheels and tires.
