Corvette Brake Pads

Get The Right Parts Each Time

You must get the right parts for your Corvette each time. It's safer to scout around for reliable suppliers of Corvette parts. The next requirement is to sift through the list and check out the costs of these parts. Some of these car parts are very expensive, so it might be a good idea to surf and lock on to a supplier who not only gives you good stuff but offers competitive rates as well. At times you might get parts at discounted rates and that's a bonus. Finally, when you have different options for the same part, it's best to ask the professional automobile engineer who'll be able to advise you on the subject. Ultimately your query is whether or not the difference in costs for the same part is justified on account of difference in quality or service.

When you want to go for the brake overhaul you'd need several kinds of C5 Corvette parts. These could be the Corvette brake pads in which you could buy the Hawk HPS (Street) for the rear and the GM-OEM for the front. It's always advisable to go for the ceramic pads because of the reduced black dust on your wheels. These pads also have great life. They are quiet and you get a better feel from them while racing. An important purchase is the High Performance Brake Package of which there are various types. You could opt for one of the choices that not only give you the 13" cross-drilled and slotted rotors for the front and similar rotors in 12" for the rear but also the high temperature brake fluid and the DOT approved stainless steel brake lines.

C6 Corvette parts for the brakes have similar options. You could go for the brake bleeder tool DIY or MaxPro and the bottle adaptor and tube. The Corvette brake caliper cover set of 4 could be ordered in normal or body color matched varieties. Order some brake fluid test strips too. Then you have the brake pad cover set in highly polished stainless steel and the brake rotor hub covers that are available in black, red and chrome.

Hawk Brake Pads - Performance Ceramic (Rear) [97-04 Chevrolet Corvette] $97.01 "Hawk Performance has introduced a premium, high performance, ultra-low dust, low noise compound called Performance Ceramic. Performance Ceramic is engineered to reduce brake NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness), creating a quieter performing brake pad. Furthermore, the ceramic brake pad formula has a linear friction profile that allows your ABS brake system to work more effectively. With Performance Ceramic you can expect reduced brake pad wear, lower dust output levels and a rotor-friendly brake pad. Hawk Performance burnishes its Performance Ceramic brake pads as a final step in the factory, but all brake pads have to be bedded-in with the rotors (new or used) that they will be used against. Properly bedding-in new brake pads results in a transfer film being generated at the pad and rotor interface to maximize brake performance."
