Front and Rear Brake Pad & Rotor Kit for 2005-2012 Nissan Pathfinder

In this review the kit is evaluated for Pathfinder owners who want a full, matched replacement of both pads and rotors. The bottom line: this TRQ kit delivers a direct-fit, ceramic pad and premium G-coated rotor combination that mirrors OEM stopping performance while simplifying installation for the DIY mechanic. It is best for owners of 2005-2012 Nissan Pathfinder models seeking an all-in-one front and rear replacement with durable rotor coating and quieter, low-dust ceramic pads.

Key Features

• Complete kit: Includes front and rear ceramic brake pad sets plus front and rear premium G-coated performance rotors so both axles are replaced at once for matched wear and feel.
• Performance rotors: Slotted and drilled rotor surfaces improve heat dissipation and provide consistent braking under load for better performance on heavy or loaded Pathfinders.
• Ceramic pads: Ceramic friction material offers lower dust and predictable pedal feel similar to original equipment for everyday driving and towing.
• Direct-fit design: Pre-assembled components are designed to match original dimensions for an easier installation that avoids modifications and saves time for DIYers.
• Premium coating: G-coated rotors resist corrosion during storage and in service, which helps preserve appearance and extend rotor life in wet or salty conditions.

Who It's For

This kit is aimed at Nissan Pathfinder owners from model years 2005 through 2012 who want a single purchase that replaces both front and rear pads and rotors with compatible parts. It is well suited for owners who perform their own maintenance and appreciate pre-matched components and video support to guide installation.

Those seeking high-performance racing compounds or specialty track pads should look elsewhere, since this package is designed for street performance and durability rather than extreme track use. Also double-check fitment for specific V6 or wheel variants before buying.

Pros & Cons
