Construction & Design:
The StopTech Sport rotors feature a durable black E-coating that protects against rust and corrosion while providing an aggressive aesthetic. Their slotted design improves brake pad cleaning and gas evacuation, reducing fade during repeated heavy braking. The rotors are precision-machined to OEM dimensions, ensuring perfect alignment and smooth operation.
StopTech Sport brake pads utilize a proprietary friction material engineered to deliver strong initial bite and consistent performance across a wide temperature range. These pads offer a balance between aggressive stopping power and moderate dust production, making them suitable for daily driving and spirited use.
Complementing the rotors and pads, the stainless steel brake lines replace the factory rubber hoses to minimize expansion under pressure. This upgrade results in a firmer, more responsive brake pedal feel and improved modulation, enhancing driver confidence.
