• Multi-layer rubberized shims on brake pads that insulate against noise for virtually silent braking
• Stainless-steel installation hardware included for a secure, rust-resistant fit
• Rotors dynamically balanced and manufactured to strict tolerances for minimal disc thickness variation (DTV) and runout, ensuring smooth, vibration-free braking
• Direct bolt-on replacement with no modifications required, making installation quick and hassle-free
• Brake lubricant included to reduce noise and ensure optimal pad performance
• Third-party validated low-dust formula tested in real-world traffic conditions for proven cleanliness and performance

Construction & Design:

The rotors in this kit are crafted to meet or exceed original equipment specifications, ensuring a precise fit and reliable performance. The semi-coated finish is strategically applied to critical areas prone to rust, such as the rotor hat, outer edges, and cooling vanes, providing enhanced corrosion resistance without compromising braking efficiency. This coating helps maintain the rotor’s appearance and structural integrity over time.

The Z17 Evolution Plus ceramic brake pads feature a proprietary low-dust friction material designed to reduce brake dust accumulation significantly compared to standard pads. Their multi-layer rubberized shims act as a sound dampener, preventing annoying brake squeal and delivering a quieter ride. The stainless-steel hardware included in the kit is engineered for durability and corrosion resistance, ensuring long-lasting, secure installation.

Performance & Sound

This brake kit is engineered to improve stopping power and deliver consistent braking performance under everyday driving conditions. The low-dust ceramic pads minimize residue buildup on wheels, preserving their appearance and reducing cleaning frequency. The multi-layer shims and high-temperature brake lubricant work together to eliminate brake noise, providing a smooth and quiet braking experience.
