Up Rating Brakes

<< < (3/9) > >>

Henry Webster:
I don't think that EBC should be all that more expensive than standard genuine pads.

littlepow:
If your rims are bigger then get your disks upgraded to a larger size. If it's just the tyres, then try grooved disks as this will remove any glazing from the pads. Always helps having pads with a clean face. If you get uprated pads, then be carefull not to get ones that require a higher temprature to work effectively. Or you can always uprate your calipers.

James.Harwood:
Go for the EBC green pads as sugested and look at groved disks, or possibly grooved and cross drilled, if you have won the lottery, probably avalable as EBC as well, could be worth talking to demon tweeks at wrexham see what they have to offer.  got this set up on SWMBO's Fiesta Sport, stopes with your innards against the windscreen.

Trouble is - that means calipers as well, and it starts to get expensive.  You're better off trying uprated pads first, then grooved discs.

Or start braking earlier..... :wink:

Does anybody know if the EBC SUV\4x4 Uprated are the Same as the GreenStuff pads?? Some seem to refer to them as one, and some refer to them as the other??
