Carbotech Brake Pads Installed, WOW and an interesting finding.

Agree with all of the above. I'm still running my Potenzas which have been nice tires but can't handle the Carbotechs. Controlled pressure on the brakes yields nice stopping performance

Agree with all of the above.

I'm still running my Potenzas which have been nice tires but can't handle the Carbotechs. Controlled pressure on the brakes yields nice stopping performance but the tires lock up with any energetic brake pedal pressure. Then the ABS kicks on, the car can't figure out what's happening, and the ABS system just $hits the bed and 'ices'.
