Power Stop CRK206 Rear Coated Rotors and Ceramic Pads Kit - Low Dust

Our review of the Power Stop CRK206 rear kit finds it best suited for owners of compatible Acura RDX and Honda CR-V models who want an easy retrofit that keeps wheels cleaner while restoring brake feel. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of fully Geomet coated rotors and low-dust ceramic pads that reduce brake dust and resist visible corrosion behind open wheels. Installation is straightforward and the kit includes hardware and lubricant so a DIYer or independent shop can complete the job without sourcing extra parts.

Key Features

• Genuine Geomet coating: The rotors are fully coated, including inside the vanes, to resist rust and maintain a fresh appearance behind open wheels.
• Ceramic brake pads: A low-dust ceramic formulation reduces wheel soiling and was validated through on-vehicle third-party testing in the USA.
• Complete kit: The package includes matched rotors, ceramic pads, stainless-steel hardware and lubricant to simplify a full rear brake job.
• Tru-Cast manufacturing: Precision cast and machined rotors provide consistent fit and finish for correct rotor runout and alignment.
• Noise insulation: Dual layer high-temp rubberized shims help reduce audible noise for quieter stopping in normal driving.

Who It's For

The kit is aimed at owners of 2010-2012 Acura RDX FWD, 2013-2018 Acura RDX, and 2005-2016 Honda CR-V who want a cost effective, bolt-on rear brake upgrade that prioritizes low dust and corrosion resistance. It fits drivers who value appearance behind open wheels and prefer ceramic compounds for cleaner wheels and consistent pedal feel.

It is less suitable for drivers needing extreme track performance or aggressive heavy towing applications where metallic or specialty track pads are preferred; those users should consider dedicated track or heavy-duty commercial brake options instead.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Low-dust ceramic pads significantly reduce wheel soiling compared with typical semi-metallic pads.
• Fully Geomet coated rotors, including inside the vanes, help prevent visible rust and keep a cleaner appearance.
• Complete kit with stainless hardware and lubricant makes installation faster and avoids missing parts.
• Solid stopping performance reported by owners, with some noting improvement over OEM rear components.

Cons

• Some users report occasional squeakiness, so noise elimination is not guaranteed in every vehicle or bedding condition.
• Durability and wear feedback is mixed among users, so long-term life can vary by driving style and conditions.
