Dual Technology Ceramic (DTC) – Low Noise – Low Dust WBR ceramic brake pads are specially formulated for driving conditions that require superior friction effectiveness without compromising low noise or low dust characteristics. The advanced ceramic formulation mitigates wheel dust, brake fade, low speed and high heat squeal, at the same time providing positive pedal feel and long-life. Every WBR ceramic brake pad comes with a platform specific shim and has a burnished contact surface (scorched) just like OEM pads to ensure easy break-in and proper long-term functionality. Advanced Material Platform Specific Brake Pad Shims: To effectively combat brake squeal, WBR utilizes different advanced materials in the shim construction, as well as fastening the shim to the pad with both mechanical tabs and silicone adhesives. This platform specific advanced material shim design is included with every WBR brake pad.

Product Features:

• Original Equipment Performance
• Solid Pedal Feel With Smooth Braking Performance
• Ultra-Quiet Ceramic Formulation
• Low Dust – Long Life
• Advanced Material Platform Specific Shims
• Scorched for Easy Break In
