GP Max General Purpose Brake Pads

One of the best ways to know it’s time to replace brake pads is to watch for squeaking, squealing, or grinding. You might also notice a longer stopping distance or a pulsing brake pedal. A simple inspection involves examining your brake system, particularly the thickness of each calibre disc, as well as the overall performance of your car. Many vehicles have sensor lights to signal worn pads. Add regular inspections to your list of maintenance tasks to ensure safer driving.

Although it’s not always mandatory to replace brake fluid when installing new pads, it’s a good idea to check it. Over time, moisture buildup can reduce efficiency, and worn fluid affects your brake system’s performance. If you notice discolouration or a burning smell after heavy use, consider flushing it. It’s quick at any reputable Workshop, ensuring safety and longevity. Whether you drive with disc or drum brakes, having fresh fluid supports overall stopping power. The experts at ShockPro will be able to suggest which brake fluid is best to use, like those with ceramic disc setups, which often yield the best results from more premium fluids.

Yes, RDA GP MAX Brake Pads can handle heavier loads and towing by providing consistent stopping power and heat dissipation. Their advanced formula ensures minimal fade, which helps preserve other key components like tyres and rotors. They also pair well with proper tyre choices for heavy-duty applications. Regular inspections of your braking system are key to  preventing issues and maintaining confident performance under increased load.

RDA GP MAX Brake Pads are primarily intended for disc brake systems rather than drum brakes, meaning they function optimally where pads contact a rotor. This design ensures better heat dissipation and stability under harsh conditions. If your vehicle has drum brakes on the rear, you’ll need brake shoes instead of pads. The experts at RDA Brake Service Centres will be able to find you the best brake setup for what you need your vehicle to do. Proper installation carried out by qualified technicians will guarantee reliable performance and a longer lifespan for your brakes.
