Durability. Ceramic composite brake discs are tough and highly resistant to wear, making them very durable compared to your average iron rotors. While conventional cast iron discs or iron rotors may last up to 60,000 miles, carbon ceramic rotors can go without replacement over 100,000 miles or even outlive your vehicle …
How often should ceramic brakes be replaced?
Most steel-brake cars need new rotors every few years; a car with carbon ceramics just needs standard (and inexpensive) brake pad changes until it reaches about 100,000 miles, at which point only do you need to change the rotors.
Do ceramic brakes stop better?
Ceramic brake pads typically last longer than semi-metallic brake pads, and through their lifespan, provide better noise control and less wear-and-tear to rotors, without sacrificing braking performance.
