In this review the TRQ Front and Rear Brake Pad & Rotor Kit is judged as a practical OE replacement option for owners of 2007-2011 Honda CR-V and 2010-2012 Acura RDX front wheel drive models. The bottom line: this kit is for drivers who want a complete, vehicle-specific ceramic brake solution that includes both front and rear rotors and pads, so they can replace the entire braking surface in one job. It delivers an easy direct fit and comprehensive hardware, making it a convenient one-stop replacement.
Key Features
- Complete kit: Includes front and rear ceramic pad sets plus two front and two rear rotors so a full axle-to-axle replacement is possible in a single purchase.
- Direct fit: Designed as an OE replacement with vehicle-specific fitment to match 2007-2011 CR-V and 2010-2012 RDX front wheel drive models for straightforward installation.
- Ceramic friction: Uses ceramic brake pad material to reduce dust and deliver smoother initial bite compared with some semi-metallic options.
- Vented rotors: Front and rear rotors are vented to help manage heat under repeated stopping and extend service life in normal driving.
- Included hardware and grease: Each pad set comes with contact point grease and hardware which simplifies reassembly and helps reduce installation noise when properly applied.
- OE references provided: Lists multiple OE and aftermarket reference numbers to help technicians verify compatibility before purchase.
Who It's For
The kit is aimed at do-it-yourself mechanics and independent shops servicing Honda CR-V owners from 2007 through 2011 and Acura RDX owners from 2010 through 2012 (front wheel drive). Buyers who want a matched pad and rotor set and prefer ceramic pads for lower dust will find this kit a sensible choice.
It is less suited for drivers seeking high-performance, track-focused compounds or those who need model-specific variations not listed in the fitment. For non-front wheel drive RDX models or vehicles outside the stated years, double-check fitment or look for alternative kits.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Comprehensive kit saves time by providing both front and rear pads and rotors in one purchase.
- Ceramic pads produce less wheel dust and pair with vented rotors to manage heat in everyday driving.
- Included hardware and contact point grease make installation cleaner and help reduce post-install noise when applied correctly.
Cons
- Some customers reported mixed noise results; a few experienced noticeable noise after installation.
- Rust resistance and long-term corrosion varied in user reports, so climates with heavy road salt may need closer inspection over time.
