Key Features:

The PowerStop Z17 Evolution kit integrates innovative technologies and premium components to deliver superior braking performance and longevity:

• Genuine GEOMET 360 coating on rotors provides exceptional rust and corrosion resistance while preserving braking efficiency.
• Z17 low-dust ceramic brake pads reduce wheel dust buildup, keeping wheels cleaner for longer periods.
• Multi-layer rubberized shims on pads effectively insulate noise, ensuring virtually silent braking.
• Brake rotors are manufactured to original equipment specifications for precise fit and reliable performance.
• Includes stainless-steel installation hardware to resist corrosion and simplify installation.
• High-temperature ceramic brake lubricant is included to optimize pad and rotor contact and reduce wear.
• Third-party on-vehicle testing validates the low-dust formula in real-world urban driving conditions.
• Complete rear brake kit designed for easy, direct replacement without modifications.

Construction & Design:

The rotors in this kit feature a thin, full-surface Genuine GEOMET 360 coating, a proprietary finish that protects against rust and corrosion without compromising braking performance. This coating extends rotor life and maintains a fresh, clean appearance behind open-design wheels, even in harsh weather conditions. The rotors are precision-engineered to meet or exceed original equipment standards, ensuring consistent stopping power and durability.

The Z17 Evolution ceramic brake pads utilize a specially formulated low-dust compound that minimizes brake dust accumulation, reducing wheel cleaning frequency. Their multi-layer rubberized shims act as an effective noise barrier, delivering quiet, vibration-free braking. The stainless-steel hardware included is designed to resist corrosion and maintain secure pad retention over time.

Performance & Sound

The Z17 Evolution brake pads provide smooth, consistent stopping power with minimal dust and noise. The multi-layer shims significantly reduce brake squeal and vibrations, resulting in a quiet braking experience ideal for daily driving. The GEOMET-coated rotors maintain optimal friction surfaces, ensuring reliable braking performance in all conditions while preventing rust-related noise and rotor degradation.
