PowerStop Z17 Rear Brake Pad & Rotor Kit KOE206 — Ceramic Pads, OE-Style Rotors

The PowerStop Z17 Replacement Brake Pad & Rotor Kit Rear KOE206 is a complete rear brake service package that pairs Z17 ceramic pads with OE-style rotors and all necessary hardware for a direct bolt-on replacement.

Replace worn rear brakes with a kit designed for everyday driving: quiet ceramic pads formulated to shed less dust, precision-milled rotors to restore smooth stopping, and stainless-steel hardware to simplify installation. This PowerStop kit targets drivers who want an OE-fitting upgrade that keeps wheels cleaner while returning reliable braking feel without custom work.

How does the Z17 ceramic pad formula improve everyday braking?

Z17 pads use a ceramic-based compound engineered for reduced dust and quieter operation compared with many metallic blends. The pads are chamfered and slotted to ease bedding-in and minimize squeal while promoting consistent contact with the rotor surface.

• Low-dust ceramic material for cleaner wheels
• Chamfered and slotted faces to reduce noise and vibration
• Thermally scorched surface for faster break-in
• Engineered for dependable, repeatable pedal feel

What makes the included rotors an OE-style replacement?

The kit’s rotors are manufactured to meet original equipment dimensions and fitment, so they align with your vehicle’s calipers and mounting points. Each rotor is precision-milled and balance-checked to help restore factory-level smoothness and reduce pedal pulsation.

• Precision mill-balanced non-coated rotor for consistent braking
• OE-spec dimensions to avoid modification or clearance issues
• Surface finish optimized for immediate pad bedding and even wear
• Sold in pairs within the kit for matched rear braking performance

Is installation truly a bolt-on job and what hardware is included?

Yes—this PowerStop kit is built for a straightforward do-it-yourself replacement with no vehicle modifications. All required stainless-steel installation hardware and rubberized shims are included so you can swap pads and rotors with common hand tools.

• Stainless-steel installation clips and fasteners included
• Rubberized shims for quieter pad-to-caliper contact
• No special machining or adapters required
• Instructions and parts sized for rear axle replacement

How will this kit affect wheel cleanliness and maintenance?

The clean-ride ceramic formulation of the Z17 pads reduces the amount of iron-rich brake dust deposited on wheels, making routine cleaning easier and preserving finish appearance. Reduced dust buildup also helps maintain wheel and caliper aesthetics between services.

• Lower brake dust production than many semi-metallic pads
• Helps keep wheel faces cleaner for longer intervals
• Less abrasive residue to extend wheel finish life
• Supports simple visual inspections at service intervals
