TRQ Brake Parts Buying Guide: Save Time and Money with Quality Brake Kits

Changing worn out brakes is key to having a safe vehicle and safe driving experience. On average, brake parts need to be replaced between 30k and 50k miles depending on road conditions, driving habits, and the vehicle’s type and weight. Working brakes in good condition allow you to stop effectively, which can prevent accidents, breakdowns, and subpar braking. The better the quality of the brakes, the better stopping power and driving experience.

It’s for that reason that 1A Auto carries TRQ brake parts! These replacement and performance brake parts are true to TRQ’s acronym: Trusted, reliable, and quality.

Keep reading to learn why you should replace or upgrade your brakes with parts from TRQ (fun fact: You can even purchase TRQ brake kits to save time and money).

Why Choose TRQ Brake Parts?

With TRQ parts, you don’t have to break the bank to get a high quality or reliable product. TRQ brakes are:

Precision-engineered

TRQ sources high quality materials for a longer product life.

Direct-fit

TRQ parts are designed to ensure the form, fit, and function of each vehicle model’s original brake parts for easy installation and effective stopping.

​Rigorously tested with long warranties

TRQ’s parts are tested and proven to perform as well as or better than your originals. TRQ parts are also backed with some of the longest warranties in the industry.

How are TRQ brake parts different?

We recommend replacing or upgrading your brake parts with TRQ’s because:

• Parts are tested and durable
• Parts are manufactured with less, and will eventually contain, no toxic materials and heavy metals (such as Cadmium, Chromium, Lead, Mercury, Asbestos, Copper) in compliance with the Better Brake Law
• TRQ offers brake kits for both replacement and performance parts including pads, rotors, drums, and shoes
• Certain TRQ brake parts can also be bought in pairs or sets

TRQ also provides how-to videos to help with installs.

How will purchasing brake kits make repairs and upgrades easier?

One-stop shop

TRQ brake kits allow you to purchase all of the parts you need at once, so you don’t have to waste time and money shopping for multiple parts. TRQ brake kits contain matched components for a hassle-free install.

Easy to replace in pairs

Since front or rear brake parts should be replaced in pairs, having all parts in one kit makes it that much easier. Depending on the vehicle and location of the brakes, these parts can include brake pads, brake rotors, brake drums, brake shoes, and hydraulic parts.

If brake parts aren’t replaced in pairs, a vehicle can experience uneven braking, which can pull the vehicle to one side, reducing stopping power.

Affordable prices

Instead of spending more money on the different parts needed from different sources, TRQ offers all of the parts you need in one place at the right price.
