Cross Reference Guide

". . .(the) first step is to updgrade the brake pads from the organic or semi-metallic original equipment material to Carbon Metallic® pads. Performance Friction. . .sells Carbon Metallic® pads for a variety of cars... we found that these less compressible pads improved initial bite and reduced by nearly a half-inch the pedal travel required to achieve a given deceleration rate. Stopping distances were improved. . ."

"After some very hard use, we don't get any brake squeal or chattering - just quick, sure stops. Compared to the GM metallic pads we replaced, there is no similarity in pedal feel and stopping power. Now, after about 2000 miles, we haven't seen any increase in brake dust over the stock, and it comes off easily with water."

"Milner does recommend Performance Friction on the M3 BMW. The car is easy to manage and the brakes are phenominal. You can get on them hard and they'll bring you down quick."

"the Performance Friction Carbon Metallic pads on a '67 Chevy Camaro. The pads are 'bedded' from the factory, so you don't have to drive around with the brake pedal depressed to get heat in the pads to make sure the don't glaze up from initial use. Just install them and enjoy the improved braking."
