Aftermarket Brake System Tech with SSBC-USA's Tom Reid

OnAllCylinders

While it’s easy to get excited about jaw dropping acceleration and massive towing power, let’s make one point clear: Stopping is just as important as going. To that end, we wanted to talk with a brake expert about everything from basic brake tech all the way to disc brake conversions for classic cars and towing upgrades for late model trucks. And we found the perfect guy for the job in Tom Reid. Not only is he president and CEO of a top-tier performance brake company, SSBC-USA, Tom’s also an engineer who grew up working with his uncle’s grassroots race team.
