Nismo S-Tune Brake Pad Set - Front (non-Type M)

Nismo S-Tune brake pads are the ultimate pad for street use, and they can handle a wide range of g-forces, from light city braking, to hard highway braking. Nismo has developed an original non-asbestos friction material that works evenly across the full temperature spectrum from cold to extremely hot, and functions superbly with the ABS system. A special fiber mix made from unusually long fibers was created to prevent loss of braking power, and avoid destruction of the facing material during heat intensive braking and any accompanying brake fade. With this facing material, the brake pads function equally well in regular city traffic as in rigourous, high speed racing. In addition to mixing material which is effective to reduce noise, a noise damper is placed between the backing plates and the friction material. This combination cuts any resonance from the backplate if judder noise is produced between the brake pad and the rotor. Braking will remain steady in any weather as these brake pads resist brake fade due to water invasion. Uneven brake performance in different weather conditions has been totally minimized. High performance brake pads typically dirty the wheels with particles coming from abrasion during normal braking use, but these Nismo Brake Pads minimize this by attenuating the aggressiveness of the rotor. You may still get a little powder on your wheels, but so little that it can be simply rinsed off with just water in a quick cleaning.
