Carbotech
produces some of the highest performing brake pads in the world directly from
their research and manufacturing plant in Concord, NC, the racing headquarters
of the USA. Carbotech Performance Brakes utilize application specific compounds
that are "rotor friendly," eliminating the grabbing and locking up
that keep so many drivers and race cars from performing at their peak. You want
to go deep to gain those precious fractions of a second before you need to
brake, and Carbotech brakes let you do just that. Designed
by racers for racers, Carbotech brakes can be specified to meet the needs of
your car and driving style. Just give us a call and we can recommend the
compounds that will be perfect for your front and rear pads and shoes, assuring
that they perform together with optimum effectiveness. The
AX6™ takes the place of the Panther Plus™ compound that was so successful. AX6™ was
specifically engineered for Autocross applications. A high torque brake compound delivering
reliable and consistent performance over a very wide operating temperature
range (150°F to 1250°F +). Advanced compound matrix provides an
excellent initial “bite”, high coefficient of friction, and very progressive brake
modulation and release characteristics. AX6™ offers high fade resistance, rotor
friendliness at all temperatures, excellent cold stopping power, and non
corrosive dust. As a result, AX6™ is an excellent choice for Autocross &
novice track day drivers and beginner high performance driver education (HPDE)
drivers on street driven cars using street tires eliminating the need to change
brake pads at the track. AX6™
has gained tremendous popularity with SCCA Prosolo/Solo2 competitors for its
fantastic bite, release & modulation. Many drivers use the AX6™ for street
driving as well, even though Carbotech doesn’t recommend street driving with
AX6™ due to possible elevated levels of dust and noise. AX6™ is NOT a race
compound, and should not be used as such. AX6™ shouldn’t be used by any
intermediate or advanced track day drivers, and should not be used with “R”
compound tires (racing tires). Cars in excess of 300hp and/or 3,000lbs should
not use AX6™ for any track use.

Our sales associates will try to ensure accuracy of the products ordered based on the year and model provided by the customer. The ultimate responsibility still falls onto the customer to select the correct parts and type the current year and model in the specified blank. The year and model (ex."1998 328i") of your BMW can be found with the VIN number in the driver’s door jam. If there is any confusion in the listing please contact one of our sales representatives for clarification. Due to dimensional differences in pad shapes we do not suggest Carbotech performance pads with Performance Friction Direct Drive rotors for any application.
