Description
The DBA 06-07 Dodge Magnum SRT8 / 06-09 Dodge Challenger SRT8 XP650 Front Brake Pads are designed for high-performance braking applications where strong initial bite, consistent friction, and high-temperature stability are essential.
Part of DBA's XP650 Xtreme Performance range, the DB2259XP uses a high-performance Kevlar-based metallic friction formulation engineered to maintain excellent pedal feel and consistent braking performance as temperatures increase.
The pads are pre-burnished to accelerate the bedding-in process and are designed for demanding street driving, track-day use, towing, and other high-load applications. DBA states that the XP650 compound can operate at temperatures exceeding 650°C (1200°F) while maintaining consistent braking characteristics.

XP650 Performance Technology
The DBA XP650 range is engineered for drivers who need increased braking performance and friction consistency across a wide temperature range.
The DB2259XP uses a Kevlar-metallic friction compound designed to provide high initial bite while maintaining excellent pedal feel as brake temperatures rise. The pre-burnished friction surface helps shorten the bedding-in process, while DBA's Thermal Stability Profiling improves cold friction effectiveness and reduces bedding-in time.
The pads also incorporate application-specific chamfers, a center slot, and multi-layer shims to help manage temperature, noise, vibration, and harshness during braking.
Installation
The DB2259XP is designed as a direct-replacement front brake pad set for compatible Brembo-equipped Dodge Magnum and Challenger SRT8 applications.
For best results, install the pads according to the vehicle manufacturer's recommended procedures and complete the appropriate brake-pad bedding process after installation.
Always verify the vehicle's exact Brembo caliper configuration before ordering.
