Wilwood ProMatrix Front Brake Pads Subaru STI 2004-2017

Part #: 150 - D1001K. Wilwood ProMatrix brake pads are crafted with specially - chosen compounds. They offer enhanced performance by increasing friction and working across a wider temperature range. When picking brake pads, temperature range and overall friction are key. These pads must keep the right amount of friction for strong stopping power on the track. Also, consider the wear rate. For asphalt and road races, high - temp compounds over 1000°F are often needed. Dirt track, drag race, and street performance usually work between 500° and 1000°F, but these are just general ranges. Many things can affect brake temps. On - track performance is the best way to pick pads. If pads fade due to overheating, you may need better cooling, a heavier rotor, or higher - temp pads. Features: Medium friction and moderate temperature, a smooth yet aggressive start, low wear rate, and suitable for street use.

Using these Wilwood ProMatrix front brake pads is straightforward. Just install them as you would with regular brake pads on your 2004 - 2017 Subaru STI. When you're out on the road or track, these pads will give you a smooth and responsive braking experience. However, keep in mind that the temperature range matters. For high - intensity races, the pads might need to handle temperatures over 1000°F, while normal street driving and some races usually stay between 500° and 1000°F. If you notice the brakes losing their effectiveness, it could be due to overheating. In that case, you may need to improve the cooling, use a heavier rotor, or switch to higher - temperature pads. To maintain these brake pads, check them regularly for wear. Since they have a low wear rate, you won't have to replace them too often, but it's still a good idea to keep an eye on their condition.
