High-performance brake pads with excellent bite, torque, and modulation characteristics for the street, auto-x course, and light track duty.
Performance Friction Z-Rated pads were developed from the Performance Friction Carbon Metallic brand, but are specifically engineered for high-performance, severe-duty usage. The PFC Z-Rated pads offer excellent initial bite even when cold, with torque and modulation characteristics that are unmatched by any other high-performance street pad. They have much lower dust levels than stock pads, and the don’t exhibit any increased rotor wear despite the superior braking abilities in virtually all conditions. Z-Rated pads are equally at home on the autocross course and light-duty track days as they are on the street. These pads allow you to maximize your BMW’s factory braking system.
PFC Z-Rated pads have some exclusive features that set them apart, including their patented Ionic Fusion bonding technology, which offers the safest and strongest bond possible of the friction material to the backing plate. The pads have no rivets, so you get greatly increased safety and performance with phenomenal shear resistance. PFC’s multi-layer bonded Z-Rated pads pick up less road dirt giving you longer pad and rotor life, which means you will spend more time on the road, and less time in the shop changing your brakes.
