Cleveland Brake Pads & More
Braking is more than just slowing down — it’s about control. At HO Performance in Cleveland, we upgrade your system with high-performance brake pads, slotted rotors and callipers designed to handle serious speed.
Whether you're late-braking into corners or managing heat on long runs, every component we fit is built to take punishment and deliver a consistent response.
We don’t just replace parts — we match braking systems to how you drive. Daily, track or drag, your setup needs to work under pressure. That’s why we only use proven components that perform when it matters most.

Performance Braking You Can Trust
In motorsport, brakes endure more strain than almost any other part of the car. Heat builds fast, and any delay in stopping can throw off your line, ruin your lap or worse. That’s why our team focuses on proven performance upgrades — slotted and ventilated rotors to disperse heat, race-grade pads for consistent friction, and callipers that apply pressure evenly every time.
We also factor in your tyre setup, suspension and power output to make sure your braking system works as part of a complete package. Good brakes don’t just stop you — they give you the confidence to push harder.
Whether you’re chasing lap times or road feel, we set your brakes up to perform when it counts.
What are high-performance brake pads?
High-performance brake pads are designed for improved stopping power, heat resistance and durability under aggressive driving. They’re often made from advanced materials like carbon-ceramic or semi-metallic compounds. Unlike standard pads, performance variants maintain consistent friction at higher temperatures, making them ideal for track days, spirited driving or modified cars with increased power and braking demands.
How do slotted rotors improve braking?
Slotted rotors have grooves machined into their surface to help remove gas, dust and heat during braking. This design improves pad bite, maintains friction consistency and reduces brake fade in high-performance situations. Slotted rotors are especially useful during repeated hard stops, like on track days or spirited mountain runs, where heat buildup affects braking power.
What upgrades improve braking performance?
To improve braking, drivers often upgrade pads, rotors, callipers and fluid. Performance pads and slotted rotors help dissipate heat, while multi-piston callipers apply more even pressure. Switching to braided brake lines and high-temp fluid also improves pedal feel and reliability. These changes help the system perform better under stress and boost overall stopping power.
