Construction & Design

This brake kit features rotors manufactured to OE specifications, ensuring perfect fit and reliable performance. The rotors are crafted from high-grade cast iron with a precision-machined surface to provide consistent friction and heat management. The ceramic brake pads utilize advanced friction materials that offer excellent bite and fade resistance while producing minimal dust, helping to keep wheels cleaner for longer.

Stainless-steel hardware included in the kit prevents rust and corrosion, which is especially important for vehicles exposed to harsh weather or off-road conditions. The rubberized shims act as a buffer to reduce noise and vibration, enhancing overall braking comfort and refinement.

Performance & Sound

The Z17 Evolution Plus ceramic pads deliver smooth, confident stopping power with reduced brake dust compared to traditional semi-metallic pads. This results in cleaner wheels and less frequent cleaning. The rubberized shims and stainless-steel hardware work together to minimize brake noise, providing a quieter driving experience without compromising braking effectiveness.
