What are the drawbacks of a 6-piston front and 4-piston rear brake setup?
1 Answers
There are no drawbacks. The numbers 6 and 4 in '6-piston front and 4-piston rear' refer to the number of pistons. Below is relevant information about brake discs: 1. Introduction: A brake disc, simply put, is a round disc. The brake caliper clamps onto the brake disc to generate braking force. When you press the brake pedal, the brake disc is clamped to slow down or stop the vehicle. Brake discs offer excellent braking performance and are easier to maintain compared to drum brakes. 2. Structure: Disc brake rotors are divided into solid discs (single-piece discs) and vented discs (two-piece discs). Solid discs are straightforward—they are solid. Vented discs, as the name suggests, have ventilation properties. Externally, vented discs have numerous holes around the circumference leading to the center, known as vents.
