BMW Performance
Braking System
The BMW Performance braking system is designed to support a sporty driving style. The six-piston aluminum fixed calipers and grooved, cross-drilled discs give drivers an incredible amount of control, even in the wet, while their low weight reduces the unsprung mass on the car. Calipers painted in BMW Performance Yellow are a striking visual feature. For more visit your local BMW retailer or www.bmw.ca/performance.
Hawk Performance
High performance street (HPS) Brake Pads
Hawk High Performance Street (HPS) disc brake pads are world renowned for increasing stopping power on your street legal vehicle. Increasing the performance of your vehicles braking system is easy when you choose Hawk Performance’s HPS braking compound. This unique Ferro-Carbon formula was developed for street performance using the safety and quality of aerospace and Motorsports severe-duty friction technology. The High Performance Street compound offers a higher coefficient of friction over stock brake pads and can provide you 20-40% more stopping power and higher resistance to brake fade than most standard replacement pads. Less fade means you’ll have a highly durable brake pad with less brake dust. For more visit www.hawkperformance.com

Standard Suspension
Big Brake System
Standard Suspension has big brake kits available with 8-piston calipers and 16-inch rotors. The calipers are manufactured from forged 6061 T6 aluminum alloy. Larger calipers with more, larger pistons increase clamp load and the stopping force while maintaining use of the OEM master cylinder. The rotors feture a 2-piece floating disc design which improves airflow and cooling characteristics. The discs are vented and slotted to ensure maximum heat dissipation and to increase thermal capacity. The ceramic brake pads provide a high coefficeint of friction to ensure stronger braking even under extreme driving conditions. More information at www.Standardsuspension.com.
DBA
DBA Rotors
DBA rotors are available in standard slotted or cross drilled-and-slotted formats. Slotted-only discs are recommended for serious street performance and track use. Slotting improves brake pad bite, reduces glazing while removing gases, impurities and resins from the pads. The unique cross drilled-and-slotted combination offers similar braking performance and improves “out gassing” which can contribute to more even pad wear. Each drilled hole has been chamfered to remove stress points and reduce the incidents of cracking, unlike some of competitor designs.

TRD
tC Big Brake Kit
The TRD High Performance Big Brake Kit delivers confidence-inspiring performance, improved stopping distance and enhanced pedal feel. The four-piston opposed fixed caliper design is optimized specifically for the tC, helping to maintain or improve braking torque distribution between the front and rear axles—while achieving shorter braking distances. A patented, directional AeroRotor internal cooling vane design induces greater airflow to cool rotors, providing consistent performance in repeated or heavy duty braking. Additionally, the application-specific, one-piece rotor design features e-coated non-friction surfaces, maximizing corrosion resistance and ensuring durability under the harshest conditions, while reducing maintenance requirements and simplifying service. Kevlar/ceramic compound performance brake pads and stainless steel braided brake lines with Teflon®-reinforced construction included.
