Detailed Product Features and Benefits

The NXT-1650 brake pad set features carbon fiber ceramic friction material, which offers a stable coefficient of friction and reduced dust compared to traditional pads. The slotted design helps channel away heat and gases generated during braking, which can improve pad longevity and maintain consistent stopping power. Both the outer and inner pads have a friction material thickness of 15.6 mm, providing a substantial amount of material for longer service intervals. Chamfered edges reduce the likelihood of noise and vibration, contributing to a quieter braking experience. This set also includes mounting hardware and pad shims, ensuring a secure fit and easier installation.
