What Do Brake Pads Do?

One of the most important systems on your vehicle also happens to be one of the most misunderstood and mysterious systems—the brake system. And when they’re not working, the panic can set in. But, barring any catastrophic failures, when brakes go bad it’s usually just a worn set of pads causing the problem. Swapping brake pads is an easy enough fix, but before we can do that, we have to understand exactly what do brake pads do and how brake pads work.

Performance brake pads come in a wide range of styles. These days, though, a lot of motorists are turning their attention to ceramic brake pads. Why? There are a number of reasons, but the primary force behind this ceramic movement is grime. See, all brake pads create dust—it's all part of the stopping process. But, the dust that ceramic pads produce is a faint gray color instead of graphite gray like metallic pads. This lighter dust won't make your wheels look like they just got off a 12-shift in a coal mine after a week of driving around. That's why ceramic pads get such high brake pad ratings.

Now, that's not to say that ceramics are the best brake pads on the block. It all depends on your particular street sled. For example, if you man the helm of a full-ton pickup and regularly tow horses to and from the track, then you need a set of pads that are specially formulated to handle that kind of stress. You don't want to put your trust in some no-name discount brake pads that have been collecting dust on the back shelf of an auto parts chain store—especially when you're towing precious cargo, like race horses.

Performance brake pads are made for more than just monster-sized trucks. There are lots of options available for sportier cars (like Mazda 3 brake pads) and luxurious SUVs (like BMW X5 brake pads). And, these brake pads come in a range of strengths, from track-ready to commute-ready formulations. You might be tempted to slap a set of racing pads onto your daily driver, but beware. You'll probably find the bite a bit too extreme for your liking. It's best to get a set of brake pads that matches your style of driving—and, that's not difficult when you shop at AutoAnything. Our digital shelves are stacked to the eCeiling with tons of brake pads. Plus, you get free shipping and a 1-year lower price guarantee with your order, so there's really no reason to shop around.

Brake Pads Reviews
Check out this recent EBC Green Supreme Brake Pads customer review: Duane H from Gurley, AL says "I've had these pads in now for about 500 miles. Followed the prescribed brake in and couldn't be happier.As described in the documentation, the red brake in coating had a distinct sound during light breaking. It was kind of like sandpaper on a brick. That lasted about 50 miles or so and then went away.I also noticed immediately that breaking effort was reduced. Light pressure gave much quicker stops than the OE pads that were nearing their end of life.Last night I completed the break in process with some 60 to 10 mph rapid breaking. WOW. These pads are fantastic. The harder you push them the more impressive they are. Would definitely recommend them to anyone that wants to stop quicker without increasing brake noise."
