Default Rear Brake Shoe Options?

Are there any upgrade options other than stock replacement? My car will be getting a lot of hand brake action

Thanks

There's none that you can buy at the local dealership or auto parts store. The only company that will make some performance shoes for your application is a company local here in North Carolina called CarboTech. They have different compounds that you can choose from. After that, send all your braking components to have it cryo treated and you'll be good to go.

If you need any help with cryo treating and carbotech, PM me and I'll get you straight. I've build a good relationship with them over the years and the cryo place that I use is top notch. They deal with nascar teams only but a friend of mine works for the company so I can get in on the benefits. They also do Helium treatment too. Look into that.
