1990 Brake material question
I have a 90 c4 that I am going to redo the brakes on this summer. I
auto cross it some and otherwise drive it like I think a vette should be driven. The question is; Do drilled rotors actually perform any better then non drilled, and more important semi-metallic, kevlar, or ceramic brake pads, which are better? Any experienced input would be appreciated! Thanks |

Unless you can see the heat in your rotors you don't get much benefit from kevlar or ceramic pads. Now if you autocrossed it 30 or 40 days a year maybe you should look at better pads but stick with the slotted rotors. -- Dad 05 C6 Silver/Red 6spd Z51 72 Shark Black/Black/4spd 64 Red/red/white top/4spd |
