PowerStop Z17 Rear Brake Pad & Rotor Kit KOE5368 — Low-Dust Ceramic Pads, Precision-Milled Rotors

PowerStop Z17 Replacement Brake Pad & Rotor Kit Rear KOE5368 is a complete rear braking kit that pairs low-dust Z17 ceramic pads with OE-spec replacement rotors and stainless-steel hardware for a straightforward bolt-on upgrade.

This kit replaces both rear pads and rotors with parts engineered for quiet, consistent daily braking. It bundles chamfered, slotted Z17 ceramic pads, precision-milled rotors, rubberized shims and stainless-steel installation hardware so you get improved rotor surface contact, reduced noise, and easier DIY installation without modifying your vehicle.

How will these pads and rotors change my everyday braking?

The Z17 ceramic pads are formulated to deliver steady friction with reduced noise and less brake dust than many organic or semi-metallic compounds. Combined with OE-replacement rotors that are mill-balanced for smooth rotation, the kit restores pedal feel and reduces vibration commonly associated with worn components.

• Low-dust ceramic compound for cleaner wheels
• Chamfered and slotted pad faces for quicker break-in and consistent contact
• Precision-milled rotors to minimize vibration and restore pedal consistency

What’s included and why does each part matter?

Everything needed for a standard rear brake service is included so you can replace pads and rotors in one visit. The pads, rotors, shims and stainless-steel hardware are matched to work together, improving fitment and making installation smoother for home mechanics and shops alike.

• Z17 ceramic brake pads: quiet operation and durability
• OE replacement rear rotors: restored disc surface and balance
• Rubberized shims: reduce noise and transfer heat control
• Stainless-steel hardware: corrosion resistance and correct fit

Is installation difficult and will I need extra parts?

Installation is designed to be bolt-on with no vehicle modifications required. The kit contains the stainless-steel installation hardware, so in most cases you only need basic tools, a jack and safety equipment; no additional parts are typically necessary unless your calipers or wheel bearings require service.

• Fits directly to listed vehicle rear hubs without modifications
• Recommended tools: jack, jack stands, basic hand tools, torque wrench
