For example, if the vehicle is driven 80 percent in highway commuting conditions, 20 percent on canyon roads, and zero percent on the track, then a PosiQuiet \"street\" pad will likely offer the best combination of stopping performance, low dust and low noise.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan\u003eIf the vehicle is frequently used for track days but also as a daily driver, it might be better served by the StopTech 309 series Street Performance pad - provided that an even transfer layer of pad material on the rotor is maintained by periodically re-bedding in the pads.

Centric Parts has recognized that the leading causes of customer complaints with brakes are noise and vibration. That's why the PosiQuiet line is designed to specifically address these issues. Three different formulations of PosiQuiet brakes are available – Semi-Metallic, Ceramic and Extended Wear. Each offers unique braking characteristics to suit a particular driver and vehicle application.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan\u003eSemi-Metallic 104-series pads, for instance, offer longer rotor life and higher dust abatement. Ceramic 105-series pads, on the other hand, offer greater initial bite and higher resistance to noise issues.
