What is the main benefit of the Ultimax2 brake pads?

The Ultimax2 pads are designed to be a quality, dependable OEM replacement. They offer good performance for daily driving, produce minimal dust, and are gentle on your rotors, all while being a cost-effective option.

Are these pads suitable for aggressive driving or track use?

The Ultimax2 pads are specifically recommended for urban or daily driving. While they inspire confidence once bedded in, they are not intended for high-performance or track applications where a dedicated performance pad would be more suitable.

Do these brake pads come with everything needed for installation?

Yes, these pads include OE hardware, which typically refers to the necessary clips and shims for installation. It's always recommended to check the specific contents against your vehicle's original hardware.

Product Details

EBC Brakes is well-known for making a wide range of brake components, and their Ultimax2 pads are a popular choice when you just need a solid, dependable replacement. If you're driving a 1998 or 1999 Ford Contour SVT and your current front brake pads are worn out, the Ultimax2 is designed to get you back on the road safely without breaking the bank.

These pads are made in the UK and are engineered to provide a good balance for everyday driving. They use an optimized blend of fibers, including a small percentage of steel fiber to help achieve their price point, but far less than many competitors. This blend means they last well, produce minimal dust, and are gentle on your rotors, which is a big plus for keeping your braking system in good shape over time. They're also ECE R 90 approved, meaning they meet European safety standards and are equivalent to original equipment pads, even at a lower price.

When you're replacing your brakes, remember that safety is key. If you're not a qualified mechanic, it's always a good idea to have a professional handle the installation, or if you are, consider using the manufacturer's installation guide.
