are brake pads the same in the front as they are in the rear i have disk breaks all the way around

 

the front two rotors are vented, and because of the fact they take most of the burden from stopping short, they require bigger pads with more surface area.


the rear are single plane rotors, and require a smaller pad than the front.


why do you ask?>

 

Keep it in one thread please...

Fropnt pads, rotors and calipers are larger than the rears on most (maybe ALL?) cars.

 

Look, search, read
