Measurement before quotation
Discs and pads are measured and photographed, and the figures go beside the factory minimums on your estimate. You see why a part was recommended rather than taking it on faith.

Aston Martin Brake and Tire Service in Dallas, TX
Pads, discs, brake fluid and tire condition measured off the car and documented against your VIN, so what you replace is decided by numbers rather than a glance through the spokes.
A system, not a parts list
Brakes, Tires and the Way the Car Was Built to Ride
An Aston Martin is tuned around its rubber. The dampers, the electronics and the steering weight were all developed on specific fitments, which is why a set of tires chosen on price alone changes more than the invoice suggests.
Low-profile tires on a heavy grand tourer age from sunlight and from sitting. A DB9 that covers 2,000 miles a year can have date codes older than its last service, and grip that has quietly moved on without the tread ever showing it.
Brake wear on these cars is honest but easy to miss. Fluid absorbs moisture on the same two-year clock as any other car, and a pedal that has grown slightly longer is a measurement away from an explanation.
What we measure
- Pad material remaining, front and rear, measured rather than estimated
- Disc condition and thickness against factory minimum
- Brake fluid moisture content and last service date
- Tire tread depth, wear pattern and DOT date code on all four corners
- Wheel condition, bearing play and stored brake-related faults
The work
What Brake and Tire Work Involves Here
Every visit starts with the wheels off. Nothing is condemned from a visual check.
Fluid and hydraulics
A full brake fluid flush to specification, with moisture readings recorded before and after. Calipers, flexible lines and the booster circuit are inspected for seepage while the car is on the lift.
Tires and fitment
Tread depth matters less than most owners expect.
- Date codes. Six years from the DOT code is our practical limit on a car that spends its life parked.
- Wear pattern. Inside-edge wear points at alignment or ride height, not at the tire itself.
- Matched sets. Mixing compounds across an axle changes how the stability systems read the car.
- Fitment. We fit what the model was developed on and tell you when an alternative is sensible.
Road test and record
Pedal feel, pull and ABS behavior verified on a road test, then the measurements and part numbers filed against your VIN for the next inspection to compare against.

Why March Motorsports
Why Owners Bring Brake Work Here
Brake work is where guesswork gets expensive in both directions. Condemning a good disc costs money you did not need to spend; passing a worn one costs far more later.
We measure, we show you the numbers, and the file stays with the car so wear becomes a trend you can plan around instead of a surprise.
Measured, not eyeballed
Pads, discs and fluid tested with the wheels off and the readings photographed.
Genuine parts
Correct friction material and fluid specification, recorded by part number.
A baseline you keep
Every figure filed against the VIN, so the next check has something to compare.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Every two years regardless of mileage. Fluid absorbs moisture from the air, which lowers its boiling point and lengthens the pedal under heat. It is one of the intervals low-mileage cars fall behind on most often.
Sometimes, yes. Rubber ages whether the car is driven or not, and we treat six years from the date code as the practical limit on a car that spends most of its life parked.
No. Longer travel usually means fluid past its service life, pad wear or air in the system. A measurement and a fault read will say which.
Yes. You get the measurements, the factory minimums and photographs, and you decide what happens next.
Yes. Brake and tire condition is part of every scheduled service, and the figures go into your file against the VIN.
We fit what keeps the car behaving as designed, usually in pairs at minimum on the same axle, and we will explain the reasoning for your specific fitment.
