Front and Rear Ceramic Brake Pad & Rotor Kit - G-Coated Rotors

In this review of the Front and Rear Ceramic Brake Pad & Rotor Kit the bottom line is simple: it is a direct-fit, OE replacement option for owners of compatible 2012-18 Jeep Grand Cherokee and 2012-20 Dodge Durango models who want a complete pad and rotor refresh in one purchase. The kit includes front and rear ceramic pad sets with contact point grease and hardware plus four premium G-coated rotors, so the biggest reason to buy is convenience - a matched pad and rotor package that aims to restore stopping performance close to OEM without hunting for parts separately.

Key Features

• Complete kit: Includes front and rear ceramic pads with hardware and greases, plus two front and two rear G-coated rotors, so installation can be done in one service session.
• Direct fit: Designed as an OE replacement disc brake kit for specific vehicle brake codes and rotor diameters to simplify fitment for compatible Grand Cherokee and Durango models.
• Ceramic pads: The ceramic compound provides quieter operation and reduced dust compared with some metallic pads for cleaner wheels and smoother brake feel.
• G-coated rotors: Premium G-coating helps resist corrosion on the rotor hat and faces, improving long-term appearance and potentially extending component life.
• Hardware & grease included: Contact point grease and installation hardware are supplied with front and rear pads to reduce missing-part issues during replacement.

Who It's For

This kit is best for DIY mechanics and independent shops working on 2012-18 Jeep Grand Cherokee (Laredo, Limited, Overland) and compatible 2012-20 Dodge Durango with the specified 330mm front rotors and BR1 brake code who want a matched pad-and-rotor replacement that fits directly without modification. It is also a good choice for owners who prioritize reduced rotor corrosion and a ceramic pad feel similar to OEM.

It is not ideal for vehicles with heavy duty brake options, non-solid rear rotors, or for buyers who need guaranteed silent operation, since some customers report mixed noise outcomes and occasional assembly or rotor accuracy issues. If absolute OEM quietness or custom performance tuning is required, consider OEM parts or performance-specific kits instead.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Matched front and rear components offer convenience and a consistent braking feel after installation.
• Ceramic pads deliver reduced dust and a smooth initial bite similar to OEM pads.
• G-coated rotors resist corrosion, helping maintain looks and function over time.
• Hardware and contact point grease included reduces likelihood of missing pieces during install.

Cons

• Some users report mixed noise levels, with occasional squeak that may require bedding or shims to resolve.
• A minority noted rotor accuracy or assembly concerns, so inspect rotors and included hardware before installation.
