A high-level overview of Lamborghini brakes and pads
The kinds of brakes and brake pads on your Lamborghini are based on the kind of Lamborghini super car you drive. Many Lamborghini models utilize carbon-ceramic brakes for both the front and back wheels. One exception is the Lamborghini Huracan with rear-wheel drive. In that instance, you probably have steel disc brakes that are ventilated. The brake pads you use will correspond with the kinds of brakes your Lamborghini is equipped with.

That can lead to very expensive repairs and even put your own life at risk.Â
