Using these brake pads is simple. Just have a professional mechanic install them according to the vehicle's specifications. When driving, you'll immediately notice the improved stopping power. As for maintenance, check the brake pads regularly for wear. If you see that the pads are getting thin, it's time to replace them. Also, make sure to keep the brake system clean. Avoid sudden and extreme braking as much as possible to extend the life of the pads. And remember, these pads are designed for street - legal vehicles, so don't use them in racing or other high - stress situations not meant for normal street driving.
