What is a disc brake pad set?

A disc brake pad set is a batch of brake pad upgrades fashioned from premium materials. They are often axle-specific (i.e., designed either for the front or rear axle). Also, disc brake pad sets like the UD1544 match the brake calipers and rotors of the 2017-18 Hyundai Elantra. So, you know that it will fit.

What are 3 reasons to upgrade?

Improved Control:

Heat is known as the number one enemy of brake systems. In extreme cases, heat buildup can cause brake fade or even total brake failure. With the EBC Brakes rear disc brake pad set UD1544, you won’t cope with heat buildup issues at the wheels as much as you may with your stock brakes. The reason is that these brake pads feature denser layers of heat- and friction-resistant, premium-grade friction materials. As a result, these brake pads operate a lot cooler. Therefore, they deliver a firmer bite and smoother, more controlled braking.

Shorter Stopping Distances:

Shorter stopping distances mean everything when racing against other drivers or attempting to go around corners faster. According to Car & Driver, the 2017-18 Hyundai Elantra 4Cyl 1.6L requires a minimum of 178 feet to pull to a stop from 70 mph. With this brake set, your car’s braking distance is sure to reduce considerably, even by up to 20 percent. Therefore, it will enable you to get back on the gas pedal quicker after every braking motion, and as a result, move swifter than before.

Longer Wear Life:

The brake pads that you get with the EBC Brakes rear disc brake pad set UD1544 feature thicker backing plates made from harder compounds, and so they are less likely to warp or fracture; they are also better at keeping dust and debris from coming between the brake pads and rotors. These brake pad upgrades also feature substantial layers of specially formulated, premium-grade friction material better at withstanding intense braking friction. Therefore, you will likely stay longer without getting brake pad replacements when you install this brake pad set.
