TRQ Rear Brake Pad & Rotor Kit Ceramic Compatible with Mitsubishi

In this review of the TRQ Rear Brake Pad & Rotor Kit, the bottom line is straightforward: this kit is for DIY owners who want a direct-fit, ceramic pad and rotor replacement that aims to restore like-new stopping performance. The reviewer found the kit best for drivers of compatible Mitsubishi models who value low dust, reduced noise and an easier install thanks to pre-assembled components and clear DIY video guidance. The kit includes a rear ceramic pad set and two rear rotors and stands out primarily for its quality materials and emphasis on fit and ease of installation.

Key Features

• Complete kit: Includes one rear ceramic brake pad set and two rear brake rotors so you replace pads and rotors together for consistent braking performance.
• Ceramic friction: Ceramic pad material produces less dust and tends to preserve wheel appearance compared with semi-metallic pads.
• Pre-assembled design: Components are engineered for direct fit to avoid modifications and to speed up the installation process.
• Durable rotors: G3000 casting alloy is used to reduce noise and improve wear resistance under regular driving conditions.
• DIY support: TRQ provides extensive DIY video resources to help owners feel confident during replacement and to "view before you do".

Who It's For

This kit is aimed at owners of 2017-2021 Mitsubishi Outlander, Outlander PHEV, and 2018-2020 Eclipse Cross models who need rear brake pads and rotors replaced and prefer a ceramic option for lower dust and quieter operation. It is a good match for home mechanics who appreciate direct-fit components and video guidance to reduce time and the risk of errors.

People who should look elsewhere include drivers who require a specific performance compound not listed here or those who cannot confirm fitment from the vehicle compatibility chart; a minority of buyers reported mixed fit results, so verifying your vehicle reference numbers before purchase is recommended.

Pros & Cons
