PRODUCT INFORMATION

Paragon PA055 / PA025 Caliper Brake Pads

Experience superior stopping power, excellent modulation and control, and high fade resistance with the Paragon PA055 / PA025 Caliper Brake Pads from Winmax Japan. With 60 years of experience in manufacturing high performance brake pads, Winmax Japan delivers a product that is race proven and perfect for high temperature conditions. These brake pads are a perfect match with Paragon rotors, providing confidence at every braking point, lap after lap.

Commonly used with

  • Paragon PA055 / PA025 calipers
  • AP CP9440 / CP9200 / CP5040 / CP5200 calipers (CP3215D50 pads)
  • AP CP9448 / CP9449 / CP9450 / CP9451 calipers (CP3215D46 pads)

These brake pads are designed for optimal performance. The part numbers for these brake pads are PBP.0814.165.P2 / PBP.0814.165.P3 / PBP.0814.165.R5 / PBP.0814.165.R7. If you are unsure about fitment, please contact us to verify fitment for your vehicle/application.

Paragon offers four different brake pad compounds to suit your specific needs.

P2 compound, also known as the 'Sport Comfort' compound, is ideal for street use with its balance between performance and street friendliness.

P3 compound, or 'Road & Track' compound, is perfect for sport driving, autocross, and light track duty while still maintaining street drivability. 

R5 compound, or 'High Friction Track/Competition' compound, is designed for dedicated track use with its high coefficient of friction and wide temperature range.

R7 compound, or 'Maximum Friction Track/Competition' compound, is a full race compound with maximum stopping power and effective operating temperature.

Choose the P2 compound for daily driven vehicles with performance in mind, the P3 compound for occasional track use, the R5 compound for lighter cars or as a rear pad option, and the R7 compound for advanced high speed track events, competitions, and heavier cars. Please note that track and race pads are not recommended for street use due to elevated brake dust and noise levels, and may result in higher pad and rotor wear during low

How do you primarily use your vehicle?
This is the single most important factor in matching you to the right compound.
🏙️
Daily Driver
Commuting, errands, highway — normal street conditions
✓
🛣️
Spirited Street
Street-driven but you enjoy pushing it on backroads and canyons
✓
🔄
Dual Purpose
Street-driven but you take it to track days or HPDE events
✓
🏁
Track / Race
Regular track days, time attack, club racing, or dedicated race car
✓
🪨
Off-Road / Heavy Duty
Off-road, overlanding, towing, armored vehicles, or military/LE use
✓
How would you describe your braking style?
Be honest — this helps match bite and pedal feel to how you actually drive.
🕊️
Smooth & Progressive
I want easy, linear feel. Comfort and predictability over outright bite.
✓
⚖️
Firm but Controlled
I brake firmly when needed but don't threshold brake every corner.
✓
🔥
Late & Aggressive
Maximum initial bite. I brake deep and hard, every time.
✓
🎯
Trail Braking
I carry braking into corners — I need consistent release and feel.
✓
What's the highest heat scenario your brakes will see?
Compounds are engineered around specific temperature windows. Choose the most extreme situation you'll regularly encounter.
Cold
Street
Sport
Track
Race
❄️ Cold Climate / Gentle Use (under 100°C)
Mountain driving in cold temps or very gentle braking — needs immediate cold bite from the first stop
✓
🟢 Normal Street (100–400°C)
Typical daily driving — brakes rarely see sustained heat buildup
✓
🟡 Spirited / Mountain Passes (400–600°C)
Long descents, heavy vehicles, spirited canyon driving or repeated hard stops
✓
🔴 Track / HPDE (600–900°C)
Sustained hard braking on circuit — brakes get genuinely hot every session
✓
⚫ Racing (900°C+)
Endurance, sprint, or club racing — maximum sustained heat every lap
✓
How do you feel about brake dust and noise?
Higher-performance compounds often produce more dust and occasional squeal. Tell us your tolerance.
🤫
Keep It Clean & Quiet
Clean wheels and silent operation matter to me. I'll trade some peak bite for this.
✓
🤷
Some Dust Is Fine
Happy to clean wheels more often if it means better braking.
✓
💪
Performance Only
Dust, squeal, smell — I don't care. Give me the best stopping power.
✓
How important is rotor longevity to you?
Aggressive compounds can accelerate rotor wear. On Alcon-grade rotors, this is especially worth considering.
💰
Rotor Life Matters
I want pads that are gentle on rotors. Replacement costs are a real concern.
✓
⚖️
Balanced Trade-off
I'll accept moderate rotor wear for meaningfully better stopping power.
✓
🏆
Performance First
Rotors are a consumable. I'll replace them as needed. Max stopping power wins.
✓
What's your budget per axle set?
Our catalog ranges from ~$100 to $500+ per axle. Every tier has excellent options — this helps us match you to realistic choices.
