Performance Brake Pads

Brake pads are the cheapest lap time — and the cheapest peace of mind — you can buy. VINIC builds two application-specific compounds instead of one pad that compromises everywhere: a low-dust, low-noise Street compound for daily driving, and a Sport compound that survives 850 °C track abuse. Every pad set is shimmed, slotted and bed-in ready, engineered alongside our forged calipers and high-carbon rotors.
