This brake kit combines front and rear rotors and pads, engineered to meet or exceed original equipment manufacturer (OEM) standards, ensuring reliable and consistent braking performance for daily-driven vehicles.
PowerStop is a reputable brand recognized for its commitment to quality and innovation in the automotive braking industry. Their mission centers on providing drivers with accessible, high-performance brake upgrades that enhance safety and driving confidence without compromising ease of installation or vehicle compatibility.
This particular kit features the Z17 Evolution brake pads, which incorporate a low-dust friction formula. This advanced formulation has undergone rigorous third-party testing on vehicles within the United States, confirming its effectiveness in minimizing brake dust accumulation. Consequently, wheels maintain a cleaner appearance over time, reducing maintenance efforts.

This coating enhances rotor longevity without detracting from braking efficiency or heat dissipation capabilities. Manufactured to precise OEM specifications, these rotors ensure a perfect fit and optimal performance, contributing to vehicle safety and driver assurance.
Installation of the PowerStop Z17 Evolution Geomet Coated Brake Kit is straightforward, as the package includes stainless-steel hardware necessary for a complete brake system replacement.
