DBA Xtreme Performance "XP" Front Brake Pads | 17-23+ Civic Type R FK8 & FL5, 23+ Integra Type S DE5

Dial in the braking feel your car deserves with DBA (Disc Brakes Australia) brake pads, selected specifically for the demands of the Honda Civic Type R and the Acura Integra Type S. Whether you’re chasing a sharper street bite, running spirited canyon pulls, or doing real track sessions, DBA offers multiple pad compounds so you can match your pad to your use—without guessing.

Street Performance (SP) — Best “OE+” upgrade for daily + spirited

For Type R/Type S owners who want stronger initial bite than stock while keeping things street-friendly. Great for aggressive street driving, fast highway braking, and weekend backroads.

Pick SP if: you’re mostly street-driven and want an upgrade without going full track pad.

Xtreme Performance (XP) — Dual-duty: hard street + light track days

Higher bite and better heat handling when you’re driving the car the way it was built to be driven. XP is ideal for drivers who push hard and want more consistency when temps rise, with fewer compromises than a true race pad.

Pick XP if: you do spirited runs often and hit the track occasionally.

Race Performance (RP) — Track-only compound

Built for sustained high temperatures and repeated high-speed stops. This is the choice for dedicated circuit use where fade resistance and hot performance matter most.

Pick RP if: the car sees real track time and you want a pad designed to live in high heat.
Not recommended for street use.

Why DBA pads work so well on Type R / Type S

• Compound options to match street, dual-duty, or track-only driving

• Predictable modulation with strong bite (especially important on high-grip tire setups)

• Designed to pair well with performance rotors for consistent feel under heat

• Great option when you’re upgrading fluid/lines and want pads to match the system
