TRQ Front and Rear Brake Pad & Rotor Kit Compatible with Honda Pilot

Our review of the TRQ Front and Rear Brake Pad & Rotor Kit finds it best suited for owners of 2016-22 Honda Pilot and 2017-21 Ridgeline who want a single, direct-fit replacement set that includes both rotors and pads plus brake chemicals. The single biggest reason to buy is convenience: the kit bundles front and rear ceramic pads, front and rear rotors, DOT 3/4 brake fluid and a 13 oz non-chlorinated brake cleaner so most common parts and chemicals needed for a fresh brake job are in one box. For DIY mechanics who prefer OEM-style fit and a mostly plug-and-play swap, this kit delivers clear value.

Key Features

• Direct Fit OE Replacement: Designed for straightforward installation that matches factory dimensions so the components align with the original mounting points.
• Complete Kit Contents: Includes two front and two rear rotors plus front and rear ceramic pad sets and contact point grease and hardware to reduce parts sourcing time.
• Chemical Pack Included: A 13 oz non-chlorinated brake cleaner and a 12 oz DOT 3 & 4 brake fluid bottle are provided to clean surfaces and top up the system during the job.
• Ceramic Brake Pads: The ceramic friction material produces less dust and is formulated to offer quiet, OEM-like stopping performance for street use.
• Vented Front Rotors: Vented front rotors help dissipate heat under load, supporting consistent pedal feel during repeated stops.
• G3000 Casting Alloy: The rotors use an improved casting alloy intended to reduce noise and improve wear resistance compared with basic castings.

Who It's For

This kit is for Honda Pilot and Ridgeline owners who want a single-purchase solution that replaces both front and rear brakes with compatible, OE-reference components; it suits home mechanics comfortable removing wheels, calipers and bleeding brakes, and shops that prefer a bundled option. The inclusion of hardware, grease and chemicals makes it handy for a full-service brake refresh where sourcing each item separately would be slower.

It is not the best choice for performance-oriented drivers seeking race-grade pads or for someone who needs slotted or cross-drilled rotors; if you require specialty rotors or a different pad compound, look for a performance or heavy-duty kit instead.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• High convenience and value: rotors, pads, hardware and chemicals included in one purchase.
• Direct-fit, OE replacement sizing that helps simplify installation and fitment checks.
• Ceramic pads and G3000 rotor alloy reduce dust and aim to lower noise compared with cheaper kits.
• Vented front rotors for better heat dissipation under repeated braking.

Cons

• Some customers report mixed assembly quality and occasional missing parts, so contents should be checked on arrival.
• There are mixed reports on squeak: while many experience quiet operation, others report occasional squealing under certain conditions.
