Can domestic AP brakes be used?
2 Answers
Domestic AP brakes can be used. Introduction to AP braking system: Product introduction: AP Racing provides excellent braking performance for vehicles, offering brake products suitable for various weather conditions, road conditions, and competitive racing scenarios. AP Racing's product line includes brake calipers, brake discs, complete brake kits, brake pads, brake fluid, and clutch kits specifically designed for high-friction coefficient racing applications. History of AP braking system: AP Racing was established 30 years ago and has become one of the most renowned manufacturers of modified brake products today. Competitive racing serves as the best testing standard and evaluation method for braking systems. AP brake products have maintained close collaboration with well-known motorsport competitions for many years, all aimed at creating more high-performance friction products that elevate vehicle braking and friction drive technology to higher levels.
Recently, I replaced my car's brake pads with domestic AP brand ones, and honestly, I was quite pleasantly surprised. They perform perfectly fine for daily city driving. Compared to imported brands, they cost less than half the price, which is especially friendly for someone on a tight budget like me. However, it's important to check the manufacturer's certifications. I chose a product with the EU E-MARK certification because, after all, brakes are a safety concern. After installation, I've driven over 5,000 kilometers, and there's been no noticeable heat fade during emergency stops in the city. However, when driving on mountain roads, I felt that the heat dissipation isn't as good as high-end imported ones. I'd recommend domestic brands for regular family cars, but for those who frequently drive aggressively, it's safer to consider imported ones—you can't take chances with the braking system.
