Keeping Your Tires As Clean As Your Carpet

Author: Max Rossi

Nothing makes me more up upset than seeing black stains all over my nice clean carpet. I spend hours each week cleaning, dusting, vacuuming, polishing, and scrubbing all over the house to keep my newly renovated home looking good as new. Sometimes I spend more time in my car then I do my home? Why shouldn't the same rules apply?

As much time and as much effort I put into keeping my house clean, it really means nothing if dirty foot prints are tracked all over my floors and carpets. I'm not talking about those west coast dusty prints that can be easily removed from a few pushes of your vacuum. I'm talking about the dirty, slushy boot grime that the harsh New England winters bring us every year. I take pride in my house looking the best on the block, but the minute you see that dirty carpet the house just loses half its appeal.

So what's the solution? I guess you could have every person who enters your house take their shoes and boots off but that's asking a lot. I know.....what if they invented a shoe that was always clean? What if someone invented a shoe that was free from all dust and dirt no matter what you tracked through??? Sounds impossible right? Well not necessarily! Although scientists have not yet invented any shoes for humans that are dust and grime free, there has been a breakthrough for cars.

The solution is ceramic brake pads. The automotive industry now has shoes or brake pads for your car that are completely free from dust, dirt, and grime leaving your tires....unlike your carpet always completely clean! These pads I am referring to are ceramic brake pads and seem to be the newest and preferred part for car owners who are trying to keep their ride looking good as new, and it all starts with the tires!

So what exactly are the benefits of ceramic brake pads?

COOLER: Ceramic brake pads are designed to distribute heat equally or better than metallic pads. Studies have shown ceramic pads to perform up to 350 degrees cooler than semi-metallic pads resulting in consistent braking power on each and every stop.

CLEANER: With each and every stop ceramic pads do not produce the dirty brake dust you typically get with a metallic pad leaving your car's tires and rims virtually clean with less rotor wear.

QUIET: Ceramic brake pads quiet the harsh noises that you typically hear with metallic pads due to far less friction on the rotors.
