TRQ Rear Ceramic Brake Pad & Coated Rotor Kit Compatible with Chevy

Our review of the TRQ rear ceramic brake pad and coated rotor kit finds it best suited for owners of 2011-19 Chevrolet Silverado 2500/3500 HD and 2011-19 GMC Sierra 2500/3500 HD trucks who want a direct-fit, low-maintenance replacement that improves stopping feel. The kit combines a rear ceramic brake pad set with two rear premium G-coated rotors designed as direct replacements for the original parts, and the single biggest reason to consider it is the combination of ceramic pads and a premium coating on rotors that aims to reduce corrosion while delivering dependable stopping performance for heavy duty truck rear axles.

Key Features

• Complete rear kit: Includes one rear ceramic pad set and two rear premium G-coated rotors so shoppers receive everything needed for a rear axle replacement in one purchase.
• Ceramic friction material: The ceramic pads are formulated to provide quieter operation and consistent stopping power under normal driving and towing conditions.
• Premium G-coating: The rotors' coating helps resist surface corrosion and keeps replacement rotors looking better longer in harsh environments.
• Direct fit design: Pre-assembled components are intended as direct replacements to save installation time and avoid modifications.
• Vehicle compatibility focus: Built for specific heavy duty applications on 2011-19 Silverado and Sierra 2500/3500 trucks with 8-lug rear wheels and SRW where applicable.
• DIY support: The brand provides a large library of DIY videos to help guide installation and confirm fitment before you start.

Who It's For

This kit is aimed at owners of 2011-19 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD, Silverado 3500 HD with single rear wheels, and comparable 2011-19 GMC Sierra 2500/3500 HD trucks who want a straightforward, direct-fit rear brake replacement with ceramic pads and coated rotors. It suits drivers who value reduced rotor corrosion, quieter braking, and the convenience of a single packaged kit for the rear axle.

Those who should look elsewhere include owners of dual rear wheel 3500 models or trucks outside the listed years and axle configurations; fitment has mixed reports, so anyone unsure of their hub or lug count should confirm compatibility using the vehicle fitment guide before purchasing.
