In this review the TRQ Front Performance Brake Pad & Rotor Kit is evaluated for drivers who need a direct-fit, OE replacement solution for 2007-2013 Nissan Altima models. The single biggest reason to consider this kit is that it ships as a full front brake service package with both slotted x drilled premium G-coated rotors and a ceramic pad set plus brake cleaner and DOT 3/4 fluid, making it ideal for a single-stop DIY replacement or a quick shop install. The kit balances easy installation and quiet braking performance while offering clear fitment references for Altima front applications.

Key Features

• Complete kit: Includes both front rotors, a front ceramic pad set, contact point grease, and hardware so the job can be completed without hunting down extra parts.
• Chemical kit included: Comes with a 13 oz non-chlorinated brake cleaner and 12 oz DOT 3 & 4 brake fluid so brake surfaces and fluid can be serviced during installation.
• Premium G-coated rotors: The slotted x drilled rotors have a G-coating that helps resist corrosion and keeps discs looking cleaner over time.
• Ceramic pads: The front ceramic brake pads are designed for quieter operation and reduced brake dust compared with many semi-metallic options.
• Direct fit OE replacement: Built as a direct-fit kit with specific OE and aftermarket reference numbers to match common Altima front assemblies for 2007-2013.
• Vented rotor design: Vented rotors aid heat dissipation under repeated braking to maintain consistent stopping feel.

Who It's For

The kit is best for DIY mechanics and independent shops working on 2007-2013 Nissan Altima front brakes who want a single package that includes rotors, ceramic pads and the basic brake chemical supplies needed to complete the job. Its direct-fit nature and included hardware make it a practical option for someone replacing both rotors and pads at once.

Drivers seeking maximum long-term durability under heavy-duty towing or sustained track use should consider heavier performance or high-friction racing compounds, since some owners report mixed long-term wear. Also check vehicle-specific fitment in the listing before purchase to ensure exact compatibility.
