Key Features:
The PowerStop Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Kit integrates cutting-edge technology and premium components to optimize braking efficiency and vehicle safety. Key features include:
- Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads engineered to significantly enhance braking power compared to traditional ceramic pads
- Low-dust formula validated by third-party testing, producing approximately 30% less brake dust than original equipment
- Drilled and slotted rotors designed for superior heat dissipation, reducing brake fade and improving rotor longevity
- Premium stainless-steel hardware included for corrosion resistance and secure installation
- Multi-layer rubberized shims that minimize brake noise for a virtually silent braking experience
- Zinc-plated rotors providing maximum protection against rust and corrosion
- High-temperature ceramic brake lubricant included to ensure smooth operation and reduce wear
- Complete kit engineered to work seamlessly together, enhancing stopping power and durability
- Bolt-on installation requiring no modifications to factory components
Construction & Design:
The Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Kit features rotors crafted from premium cast iron with a zinc plating finish to prevent rust and corrosion, extending the life of your braking system. The rotors are drilled and slotted to promote efficient heat dissipation and maintain consistent braking performance under demanding conditions.
The Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads utilize a proprietary compound that blends carbon fiber with ceramic materials, delivering enhanced friction, reduced dust, and longer pad life. The inclusion of multi-layer rubberized shims further reduces noise and vibration, ensuring a refined braking feel. Stainless-steel hardware completes the kit, providing durability and resistance to the elements.
Performance & Sound
With the Z23 kit, drivers experience improved stopping power and pedal feel, especially during repeated or heavy braking scenarios. The drilled and slotted rotors help maintain cooler operating temperatures, reducing brake fade and preserving performance over time. Additionally, the low-dust Carbon-Fiber Ceramic pads keep wheels cleaner and minimize brake dust buildup.
Noise reduction is a key focus, with multi-layer shims and premium hardware working together to deliver quiet, smooth braking without the typical squeals or vibrations associated with aftermarket brake upgrades.
Installation & Fitment:
This brake kit is designed as a direct bolt-on replacement for the rear brakes of compatible Dodge Ram models, requiring no modifications or special tools. The included stainless-steel hardware and high-temperature lubricant simplify installation and ensure optimal performance right out of the box. Whether you’re a seasoned mechanic or a DIY enthusiast, the installation process is straightforward and efficient.

What does the Available to Promise date mean?
ETA stands for Estimated Time of Arrival. The date shown is calculated using our Available-to-Promise (ATP) system, which tracks real-time supplier commitments to determine when a product is expected to be available for delivery. Specifically, the date is calculated by adding 9 business days from the date a supplier has committed to ship the product, representing a worst-case scenario for when we can expect to receive inventory.
Please note: The ETA is an estimate, not a guarantee. While we work closely with our suppliers to keep dates as accurate as possible, delays due to shipping carriers, weather, customs, or supplier-side issues may occasionally push the actual arrival beyond the date shown. Likewise, inventory may arrive sooner than the ETA in many cases. If you would like to be notified for when this item arrives, sign up for our back in stock notifications!
