Construction & Design:

The Z17 Evolution Plus pads feature a ceramic friction material formulated to provide strong stopping power with minimal dust and noise. The backing plates are powder coated to prevent rust and corrosion, which helps maintain pad integrity over time.

Additionally, the chamfered and slotted design aids in heat dissipation and reduces the likelihood of brake squeal, contributing to a quieter and more comfortable driving experience.
