Key Features

• Complete kit: Includes a rear ceramic brake pad set, two rear rotors, and a brake cleaner and fluid kit so most rear brake jobs can be completed from one box.
• Ceramic pad material: Positive molded ceramic pads produce less dust and are designed for quieter operation and consistent stopping performance.
• Pre-assembled pad construction: Pads are thermal scorched, chamfered, and use a multi-layer shim to help reduce noise and extend service life.
• Rotor casting alloy: G3000 casting alloy is used to improve wear resistance and reduce noise compared with generic rotors.
• Direct fit design: Application specific components are pre-assembled to match original fitment and minimize modifications during installation.

It is less appropriate for owners who need performance or heavy-duty racing components, or for those whose vehicles show unusual fitment differences; some users reported mixed fit experiences, so anyone uncertain should confirm fitment carefully before buying.
