Construction & Design:

The Z23 Evolution Sport brake pads are crafted from a high-quality ceramic compound enhanced with carbon-fiber to provide superior friction and heat management. This combination allows for strong, consistent braking power without the harshness or excessive wear associated with some performance pads. The backing plates are powder-coated to prevent rust and corrosion, ensuring long-term durability even in challenging weather conditions.

Each pad features a chamfered and slotted surface that helps reduce noise and brake fade by allowing gases and debris to escape during braking. The multi-layer rubberized shims further dampen vibrations, contributing to a quiet and comfortable driving experience.
