PFC Spec Miata (NA 1.6L) Rear Brake Pads - 97 Compound - 0458.97.13.44

When your rear braking setup demands consistency, durability and driver confidence, the PFC 0458.97.13.44 delivers with the brand’s racing‑proven 97 compound. Originally developed for endurance sportscar programmes, the 97 compound offers a slightly gentler initial bite compared to higher‑torque alternatives, but makes up for it with exceptional modulation, smooth release and a remarkably flat torque curve through the heat cycle. This means the rear end behaves predictably under load—ideal for track days, club racing or endurance formats where repeatable performance and rotor longevity matter.

This pad set is tailored for the rear axle—perfect in applications where the rear brakes tend to lock or require careful modulation. The low‑wear characteristics of the 97 compound are a standout: you’ll see less disc abrasion, fewer rotor res­urfaces and more consistent stops session after session. While it’s engineered for the track, many enthusiast drivers take it to and from events with confidence—just be aware that track‑oriented pads like this may produce more dust or noise than pure street pads. If your goal is long‑life performance, rear braking control and uncompromising durability, this pad set is a clear choice.
