The correct combination depends on the vehicle’s weight distribution, brake system design, tyre grip and intended use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRecommended DBA Brake Pad and Rotor Combinations\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStreet Series SS:\u003c\/strong\u003e DBA Street Series smooth or EnShield rotors\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStreet Series EV:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compatible DBA Street Series rotors\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStreet Performance SP:\u003c\/strong\u003e DBA Street Series T2 or 4000 Series T3 rotors\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eXtreme Performance XP:\u003c\/strong\u003e DBA 4000 Series T3 or 5000 Series T3 rotors\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRace Performance RP:\u003c\/strong\u003e DBA 5000 Series T3 or equivalent competition-grade rotors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eImportant Brake Pad Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNot every DBA brake pad compound is available for every vehicle or axle position. In some applications, DBA may offer only the compound determined to provide the most appropriate friction level, operating temperature and brake balance for that vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBrake pads may be supplied for the front or rear axle and are generally packaged as one axle set unless otherwise stated. Always confirm the DBA part number, axle position, caliper type and quantity required before purchasing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBrake pad noise, dust, wear and rotor wear will vary according to the selected compound, vehicle weight, driving style, rotor condition and operating temperature. Higher-friction compounds such as XP and RP may generate more brake dust and wear than standard street pads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNew brake pads must be installed against serviceable brake rotors and correctly bedded before maximum performance is expected. Existing rotors should be inspected for minimum thickness, cracking, scoring, excessive runout and uneven deposits before new pads are fitted. Motorsport compounds also require suitable high-temperature brake fluid and appropriate cooling for the intended application.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Disc Brakes Australia","offers":[{"title":"Daily Drive \/ Street Series","offer_id":67594774380832,"sku":"DB390SS","price":75.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1004\/5820\/1376\/files\/DBA_Product-Brake-Pads_bd777246-c03a-4b38-acb6-9b56ee1f98fd.png?v=1790673090"}],"url":"https:\/\/symmetryspec.com.au\/collections\/brake-pads.oembed?page=2","provider":"Symmetry Spec","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
