Key Features:

PowerStop’s Z17 Evolution kit combines advanced materials and thoughtful engineering to deliver a superior braking experience:

• Genuine GEOMET 360 coating on rotors for superior rust and corrosion protection without compromising braking performance
• Low-dust ceramic brake pads formulated to minimize wheel dust buildup, validated through third-party on-vehicle testing in real-world traffic conditions
• Multi-layer rubberized shims on pads to significantly reduce brake noise for virtually silent operation
• Stainless-steel installation hardware included to ensure secure, long-lasting assembly and resistance to corrosion
• Rotors manufactured to original equipment specifications for precise fit and reliable performance
• High-temperature ceramic brake lubricant provided to optimize pad and rotor interface
• Complete front brake kit designed for daily-driven Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles

Construction & Design:

The rotors in this kit are fully coated with PowerStop’s Genuine GEOMET 360 finish, a thin, environmentally friendly layer that protects against rust and corrosion while maintaining the rotor’s braking efficiency. This coating extends rotor life and preserves the clean, new appearance behind open-spoke wheels, a common feature on Jeep Grand Cherokees.

The Z17 Evolution brake pads utilize a ceramic friction formula that balances strong stopping power with low dust generation. Their multi-layer rubberized shims act as an effective noise insulator, preventing the common squealing associated with brake pad wear. The stainless-steel hardware included is engineered to resist rust and maintain proper pad alignment over time, contributing to consistent braking performance and ease of maintenance.

Performance & Sound

Designed to enhance everyday driving safety and comfort, the Z17 Evolution kit delivers smooth, confident braking with minimal noise. The low-dust ceramic pads keep wheels cleaner for longer, reducing the need for frequent cleaning. The multi-layer shims effectively dampen vibrations and brake noise, ensuring a quiet, comfortable ride even in stop-and-go traffic.
