Made from a proprietary quality ceramic compound, our trail rated brake pads have been tested in accordance with SAE J661. SAE is the Society of Automotive Engineers, and J661 defines the Brake Lining Quality Test Procedure. The testing was conducted with operating temperatures between 200°F and 650°F, and the results of our testing show that our pads:

• Provide better friction and stopping power than OEM pads
• Wear 30% less than OEM pads

And because we use a ceramic compound in our brake pads, they’re great for daily driving. You don’t have to worry about excess brake dust, squeaking, or squealing. You can also expect good performance from these pads when they’re cold – no need to “warm up” the brake pads at the start of your daily commute.

Finally, because we use a ceramic compound, you don’t have to replace your OEM brake rotors to enjoy good performance.

What Makes These Pads Good For Trail Use?

Unless you’re running a very steep or very fast trail, odds are your brake pads will stay pretty cool when you’re off-road. So, we’ve designed these pads to work well at lower operating temperatures. They provide immediate friction when cool for smooth, predictable braking. And they release smoothly too.

NOTE: If you’ve got a Tacoma that you use for towing or hauling, check out our HD/Tow rated brake pads. While they don’t perform quite as well at cold temperatures as our Trail rated pads, they offer more stopping power and fade resistance for heavy-duty use.

Made from a proprietary ceramic blend, our HD/Tow brake pads have been tested at temperatures ranging from 200°F and 650°F. Because it’s common to see brake pad temperatures as high as 600°F on vehicles that tow and haul, we’ve designed these pads for high temperatures. If you’re towing with your Tacoma, or if your Tacoma is substantially heavier than normal, these pads are for you.

Tested in accordance with the SAE J661 testing procedure, our HD/Tow brake pads outperform OE brake pads in a few key ways:

• More fade resistance than OEM pads
• Better friction and overall stopping power than OEM pads, especially at higher weights
• A 30% better wear rate compared to OEM pads
• Better overall braking performance for vehicles with oversized wheels and tires

And because our pads are made from a ceramic compound, you’ll enjoy a lot of the same benefits of your OE brake pads:

• Predictable performance in cold or wet weather conditions
• Minimal squeaking and squealing
• Minimal brake dust

Finally, while our HD/Tow pads have a higher friction coefficient than our Trail rated pads, they’re still compatible with OEM brake rotors. You can rest assured our pads will offer better braking performance without ruining your OE rotors.

What Makes These Brake Pads Good For Towing Or Hauling?

Adding weight to a Tacoma exponentially increases the demands on the brake system. If you’re adding weight by attaching a trailer, or by loading up your Tacoma with gear, you want a brake pad that is designed to operate at higher temperatures. While our Trail rated pads are designed to improve brake performance without losing low temperature performance, our HD/Tow pads trade some of that low temperature performance for more consistency at higher temps.

Likewise, if you don’t tow or haul much with your Tacoma, you might like our Trail rated pads better.
