Hi Adam

I currently run Hawk dtc-60 front/rear on my race C4 with AP 8350 front calipers and stock rears.

What would you recommend in Carbotech's line? I'm looking for better rotor wear and initial feel. No ABS in the ole C4.

Price also please...



Thanks,

Matt

 

Matt, I would use XP20 front $267 and XP10 rear $178 Less 5% forum discount add $40 for pre-bed.

The latest iteration of the highly successful XP™ series of compounds. XP20™ is a step up from the highly successful XP16™ compound. With an extremely aggressive initial bite, the most linear torque curve to date and excellent fade resistance the XP20™ leads the highly successful XP™ series line of compounds from Carbotech™. XP20™ has a temperature range of 275°F to 2000°F+ (135°C to 1093°C+). Carbotech™ XP20™ maintains our tradition of having the outstanding release and modulation that has made all other Carbotech™ compounds so successful. The XP20™ as with other Carbotech™ compounds is very rotor friendly. Carbotech™ XP20™ is NOT recommended for use as a daily driven street pad due to possible elevated levels of dust and noise.

When Carbotech™ unleashed the XP10™ to the general public it was an instant success. XP10™ immediately gathered multiple regional, divisional, and national championships. The XP10™ has a very strong initial bite friction material with a coefficient of friction and rotor friendliness unmatched in the industry. Fade resistance is in excess of 1650°F (898°C). Due to the high level of friction and bite, this material is recommended for cars weighing around 2,900lbs or less. XP10™ still maintains the highly praised release, excellent modulation and rotor friendliness that have made all Carbotech™ compounds so successful. Carbotech™ XP10™ is not recommended as a daily-driven street pad due to possible elevated levels of dust and noise.

 

Is that the price for the 20mm thick 521 pad for my front calipers?

2000 degrees..wow. Impressive.

 

Yes that's for the bigger pad.

If you would like to try them give me a call at 216-780-8825.

 

I looked on your site and all it showed was front brake rotors for a C4? No pics? Am i missing something?

 

Yes, our website is s wealth of information, what can I help you with?

 

I was looking for options pricing and pictures of rotors for a 1988.

 

We really do not sell rotors anymore sorry. What kind of pad are you looking for street, track or both? If you need rotors get some blank Centric rotors. Below is all corvette pads click the link.

Only Carbotech uses a proprietary Ceramic and Metallic brake construction, not the carbon and iron used in conventional brake systems. Since carbon and iron combine to form carbide, which is used in cutting tools, you can imagine what those brakes are doing to your rotors.

Carbotech Performance Brakes utilize true race 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 only Carbotech brakes let you do just that. In every turn, all race long.
