Carbotech brakes utilize a ceramic and metallic construction in a range of compounds that out-perform competitive brakes. Carbotech brakes are made from compounds that offer higher initial bite, torque and fade resistance—providing consistent brake modulation and performance over a wide range of operating temperatures.
In addition, Carbotech brakes are rotor friendly, saving money and keeping your vehicle out of the service shop far longer than the competition.
Carbotech brakes give you:
• Assured stopping power
• Increased overall performance and handling
•Excellent modulation and release characteristics
•Better control entering the corners
•Longer brake pad and rotor life—up to four times longer than the competition!
•Longer rotor life
•Non-corrosive dust

Carbotech Performance Brakes™, the world leader in Ceramic friction materials™. It was over eight years ago that Carbotech started building brake pads out of Ceramic, Kevlar, and Carbon for street, autocross and racing applications. Carbotech is the only brake pad manufacturer in the world with a complete line of Ceramic compounds for street, autocross, and track use. Carbotech-Ceramic™ compounds are known for their unsurpassed release & modulation, while maintaining very consistent torque control characteristics. Carbotech brake pads are extremely rotor friendly and contain 100% non-corrosive brake dust, that’s something that has been unmatched by any other brake pad in the industry.

From street use to the higher performance demands of track days, we'll help you achieve better brake modulation, torque and fade resistance. High-tech construction means better stopping power and a higher level of driver confidence every time you get behind the wheel.

What pads would you recommend for someone that does 5 - 7 hpde's per season, 2012 GS A-6? I'm currently running in the advanced-intermediate group (B). Current braking is about 70mph differentials: 140 - 80 or 100 - 30. Currently on stock rotors but will upgrade when they wear out (drilled rotors are useless when the holes fill with pad material) and running street tires. No plans yet to go to R-compounds.

I have Carbotech tech XP12 front and XP10 rear. Car is both street and track they are great on the track and will squeak when cold on street, all the noise is worth the performance you get on the track. They are expense however compared to other brands 500.00 for the set.
