Overview

Not a pad-only refresh, this kit bundles carbon-fiber ceramic pads, vented rotors and red powder-coated calipers for the rear axle. Stainless shims and hardware are included so the parts bolt to the factory mounting locations.

Owners who want the rear of the car refreshed in one pass, with a visible red caliper behind open wheels, get a matched set. The fit list is short and rear only, so front brakes are a separate purchase.

Who it's for

Owners of the listed Chevrolet and Buick sedans who want a matched rear set and plan a do-it-yourself install. Anyone who only needs pads or who has a different year or engine should confirm the fit list.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Pads, rotors and calipers in one kit
  • Drilled and slotted rotors vent heat
  • Low-dust carbon-fiber ceramic pads
  • Red calipers resist corrosion
Cons
  • Rear axle only
  • Short vehicle fit list
  • Heavy kit to handle

Performance notes

Carbon-fiber reinforced ceramic pads are meant to give brake torque above stock with steady behavior when hot, and drilled and slotted rotors vent heat, gas and debris. A zinc dichromate coating helps resist rust. The listing quotes no stopping-distance figure.
