Construction & Design

These brake pads utilize a high-quality ceramic material that is pressure-adhered within the brake-pad compound to ensure structural integrity and consistent performance. Ceramic compounds are known for their hardness and durability, which translates into longer service life compared to organic or semi-metallic pads. The design focuses on providing a smooth engagement with the rotor, reducing vibrations and noise while maintaining effective heat dissipation.

The advanced ceramic formulation also contributes to reduced brake dust, which not only keeps wheels cleaner but also indicates the material’s strength and wear resistance. This construction ensures that the pads maintain their performance characteristics over time, providing reliable stopping power throughout their lifespan.

Performance & Sound

R1 Concepts Ceramic Brake Pads are engineered to deliver quiet and smooth braking without compromising stopping power. The ceramic compound minimizes the unpleasant noises often associated with aggressive braking, such as squealing or grinding. This makes them an excellent choice for drivers who prioritize a refined driving experience alongside dependable performance.

Additionally, the pads provide stable braking response, allowing vehicles to stop confidently and efficiently. The reduced dust output also means less residue buildup on wheels, contributing to a cleaner appearance and less frequent cleaning.

Installation & Fitment

These brake pads are designed as direct replacements for the front and rear brake systems of the 2013–2020 Subaru BRZ, 2017–2020 Toyota 86, and 2013–2016 Scion FR-S.
