Centric 106.08260 Disc Brake Pad Set - Front

Centric Posi-Quiet Extended Wear Brake Pads

Centric Posi-Quiet Extended Wear Semi-Metallic Disc Brake Pad Sets are built for consistent braking performance, even wear, and reduced noise. Part number 106.08260 uses an OE-style positive molding process and includes precision-fit details that support stable operation in everyday driving.

Compatible With select vehicle applications that use this pad shape, including Honda Civic and other listed interchange references. The 106.08260 brake pad set is part of the Centric Posi-Quiet line, which focuses on fit accuracy, controlled friction density, and quieter operation through careful backing plate and shim design.

Key Features

• Semi-metallic friction material for dependable stopping performance
• Positive molded construction for consistent density across the pad
• Integrally molded friction attachment for stable pad structure
• Precision cut or shaved backing plates for caliper fitment
• Mechanically attached shims to help reduce vibration-related noise
• Scorched friction surface to remove impurities and speed break-in
• Asbestos-free formulation
• Mounting hardware and pad shims included where applicable

Product Details

Centric engineered the Posi-Quiet Extended Wear line to address common brake complaints such as noise and vibration. The positive molding process compresses the friction material under high pressure, helping maintain uniform density for more even wear over the life of the pad. The added scorching process pre-burnishes the friction surface so the pads can settle in faster after installation. Part number 106.08260 is a practical choice for drivers looking for a semi-metallic disc brake pad set with OE-style construction details.

What It Helps Address

• Brake squeal caused by pad vibration
• Uneven pad wear from inconsistent friction density
• Harsh or inconsistent pedal feel from worn friction material
• Longer break-in time after brake service
• Fitment issues related to backing plate or shim design

Installation Notes

Verify caliper shape, pad dimensions, and hardware requirements before installation. This set includes pad shims and mounting hardware where applicable, and it does not include a pad wear sensor. For best results, clean the caliper bracket, inspect rotor condition, and follow proper bedding procedures after installation. Fits 2006-2011 Honda Civic, front. Fits 2006-2011 Honda Civic, rear. Fits 2006-2011 Honda Civic, front and rear applications listed in interchange references should be matched to the exact vehicle configuration before service.

Quality Assurance

Centric manufactures the Posi-Quiet line using OE-style production methods and application-specific friction compounds. The 106.08260 part number is backed by Centric’s focus on consistent pad density, fit accuracy, and noise control through backing plate and shim engineering.
