Key Features:

PowerStop’s Z16 Evolution ceramic brake pads incorporate advanced technology and quality materials to enhance your vehicle’s braking system. Key features include:

Construction & Design:

Additionally, the thermal scorched surface treatment helps condition the pads quickly, ensuring optimal performance from the first use.

The pads also minimize brake squeal and vibration, delivering a quieter, more comfortable driving experience without sacrificing stopping power. Whether navigating city streets or highway driving, the Z16 Evolution pads maintain consistent performance under normal driving conditions.

No modifications or special hardware are required, making them a convenient upgrade for DIY enthusiasts and professional installers alike. For best results, it is recommended to inspect rotors and hardware during installation and replace or service as needed to ensure optimal braking performance.
