zoltan Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 I know of only one company who make a big deal about having Kevlar in their pads. They occupy the budget end of the performance pad market. If it was such a massive breakthough I'm sure the top end of the pad market would be using it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosbeldia Posted May 11, 2010 Author Share Posted May 11, 2010 Dont know if there is a temperature issue about these pads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoltan Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 I sell quite a lot of these pads at work but I do this because I am asked for them. I'd recommend the higher spec pads every time because I get less people with problems using them. The budget pads often show inconsistent friction between pads in a box so customers complain that the car is pulling to one side or wearing unevenly When you say temperature issue do you mean cold friction or performance at higher disc temperatures? I don't think they have a great deal of bite cold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosbeldia Posted May 11, 2010 Author Share Posted May 11, 2010 I mean performance at high temps. However you just clarify me this... I'll go for OEM or genuine... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
