  • Brake reduction clips

    Anyone use these? Do they make em for our car? I was reading about these

    Brake reduction clips

    and how they eliminate the rolling resistance from the brake pads slightly touching the rotor.

    I don't know how many of you have put your car on jackstands and tried to spin the front wheels, but my car gets only a few rotations, but if I take the brakes off my tires free-wheel.

    There is nothing I would love more than to free up brake drag/rolling resistance on my car, especially since I have 4 disc brakes.

      brake systems are made to have drag, for instant braking. but if it frees up some better acceleration then try em and see if it does anything

        I can see some benefits and drawbacks to using these. Of course, the reduction in rolling resistance and constant brake wear is a plus. However, I could see these being a drawback when your pads start to get more worn, as you wouldn't have the instant pedal response you normally would. I may give them a try for a while, see how they work out.
