Classic parts like the brake pad set parts contribute to the success of the BMW 335i. The brake pad set was introduced to racing in the 1950s, shortly after it started to appear in cars. The job of a brake pad set is to transfer the kinetic energy of the vehicle to the thermal energy which is caused by friction.
