Default Brake Pads

What do you mean by "rotor friendly"? How much do they increase rotor wear over the stock pads when used for street use only and non aggressive driving. I don't need more brake I just want less dust.

They do not increase rotor wear. They decrease rotor wear you will most likely get 2x the rotor life. The 1521 at normal driving will last 2-3 times longer than an oem pad.

Carbotech™ Bobcat 1521™ The Carbotech Bobcat 1521™ is our high performance street compound that is our most successful compound. The Bobcat compound is known for its awesome release and modulation, along with unmatched rotor friendliness. Like our AX™ & XP™ line of compounds, Bobcat 1521™ is a Ceramic based friction material offering minimal rotor damage and non-corrosive dust. Bobcat 1521™ offers outstanding performance, even when cold, low dusting and low noise with an excellent initial bite. This compound’s virtually perfect linear torque production provides incredible braking force without ABS intervention. Bobcat 1521™ operating range starts out at ambient and goes up to 900°F. Bobcat 1521™ is suitable for ALL street cars, perfect for your tow vehicle, police cruiser. The Bobcat 1521™ compound has been found to last two-three times longer than OE pads you can purchase at a dealership or national retailer. That’s one of the beauties of Carbotech Ceramic brake compounds. Bobcat 1521™ is NOT recommended for any track use.

Default Brake Pads

Thanks for the info. Forum readers say you are a straight up vendor so I trust in what you are telling me. I will be ordering and installing the 1521 pads as soon as my C7 arrives. Its on its way next week from BG to Northern CA. by rail.

I'm getting ready to do the same for my newly delivered Z51. I lived with the brake dust on my Grand Sport WAY too long and won't do that again.

Another C7 in Brentwood?? You're going to take away some of the attention I've been getting.

Default Pads

I'm in Northern California Brentwood, not O.J's old home town. If you are in North CA, I have already seen a few around town.
