Brake systems are designed to slow the vehicles wheel movement through friction. There are primarily two brake systems, ABS and non ABS. Both systems work on basic hydraulics and utilize a brake master cylinder (connected to the brake pedal in the car) that supplies brake fluid pressure to the front brake caliper and rear brake caliper if so equipped.

Front brake pads provide up to 70% of vehicle stopping power. In general, front brake pads wear out twice as fast as rear brake pads, 2 to 1. Disc brakes have a definite braking power advantage over drum style brakes and performance is not compromised as much when wet. Some disc brakes utilize cooling fins in-between the braking surfaces to maximize cooling efficiency. Replacing brake discs can vary depending on the make and model of your vehicle or truck, two or four wheel drive. Replace your brake rotors with top quality brake rotors provided by OCAutosports.com. You can check on Youtube (u tube) for interesting videos on how to change brake rotors, how to change brake pads, how to change brake shoes, and how to replace brake pads.

OCAutosports.com also carries Brembo brakes which is the leader in the design, development and production of Original Equipment, racing and aftermarket brake components and systems for the worldwide automotive industry.

OCAutosports.com supplies performance disc brake upgrades, a large selection of high performance brake pads, cross drilled brake rotors, slotted brake rotors, and brake kits for most cars, trucks and SUVs. OCAutosports.com is an authorized warehouse distributor for Brembo Brakes, Posi Quiet Brake Pads, Centric brake rotors and ceramic, semi metallic, and semi metallic extended wear pads. OCAutosports.com also carried OP Parts, and Centric Premuim Brake Pads with shims. To achieve the quietest possible brake OCAutosports.com offers "application engineered" rotors that are designed to match the noise, friction and cooling characteristics of the OEM rotors. This approach reduces the risk of creating noisy brakes when the rotors are replaced. Equally important are the pads themselves. Some friction materials are noisier than others, just as some brands of pads are quieter than others. OCAutosports.com offers the latest designs for a quieter, smoother, and quieter braking system
