Product Details

If you're looking to get more out of your braking system, especially if you do some spirited driving or track days, the Wilwood BP-Q 6712 brake pads are a solid option. These pads use a ceramic compound designed to offer a good balance between street manners and track performance. They are built to handle higher temperatures than standard pads, which helps prevent fade when you're really pushing your car.

The .49-inch thickness means you get a substantial amount of pad material, giving you more longevity and consistent performance over time. Wilwood is well-known for making reliable brake components, and these pads are no exception. They are designed to fit right into your existing caliper setup, making the upgrade process straightforward. You can expect a noticeable improvement in stopping power and pedal feel, especially during repeated hard stops.
