Should You Choose Brake Pads Based on Your Driving Habits?
Brake pads are very important members of your vehicle safety system. Mounted on the front and/or rear wheels, brake pads use hydraulic pressure created by the calipers to clamp down on and stop the brake rotors. Rotors are slick discs of metal that are directly attached to the wheels, and they provide flat, wide surfaces for the brake pads to operate upon.
While brake pads are tough, they need to be optimized for the vehicle and the driver that will be using them.
