Product Features/Benefits:

The notion of an "aggressive" brake is misunderstood. Brake pads are formulated for the type of driving you do. DFC Active Performance brake pads are for drivers who brake late, smooth, and hard, even on the street. They require a little bit of heat, but not as much as full track/race pads, to work properly. Once at operating temperature they are quiet and stop better than any OEM pad out there. Brake dust is moderate and well below OEM BMW brake pads.
