Power Stop K8449 Z23 Evolution Sport Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pad & Drilled/Slotted Rotor Kit

The Power Stop K8449 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit is a complete, bolt-on braking solution engineered for daily drivers who demand more than stock performance. This all-inclusive kit delivers upgraded stopping power, reduced brake dust, and a cleaner look — without the complexity of piecing together individual components.

Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads

At the heart of this kit are Power Stop's Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads, purpose-built to outperform standard OEM pads. The carbon-fiber-infused ceramic compound significantly enhances braking performance while resisting brake fade at elevated temperatures. Each pad is thermally scorched during manufacturing to minimize break-in time and ensure consistent performance from the first stop. Dual-layer rubberized shims dampen vibration for virtually silent operation, and the low-dust formulation — verified through third-party on-vehicle testing — keeps your wheels looking clean.

Drilled, Slotted & Zinc-Plated Rotors

The matched drilled and slotted rotors work in tandem with the Z23 pads to maximize braking efficiency. Precision beveled drill holes allow heated gases and air to escape, reducing rotor temperatures during demanding stops. The machined slots continuously sweep the pad surface clean of dust and debris, maintaining a firm, consistent contact patch. A zinc-plated finish provides long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion, keeping rotors looking sharp behind open-spoke wheels.
