Review on ๐Ÿ”ฅ Enhance Braking Performance with Power Stop K5969 Front Z23 Carbon Fiber Brake Pads and Drilled & Slotted Brake Rotors Kit by John Ramsey

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy to install, just read the instructions and warnings.

By far the easiest screw to install. The price is a bit high but compared to the stock pads and rotors they are a bit grippier so I can't complain too much about the price. The kit contained everything you need for a typical brake job: guides, pads, rotors, guide pad lube and I was a little surprised to see that the kit also included replacement rubber caliper caps. WARNING: There is a lapping process for pads and rotors that is EXTREMELY important. This is what it says on the packing of the seals AND THIS IS THE FIRST THING YOU SEE WHEN YOU OPEN THE BOX OF PURGETS. The procedure is simple and fairly self-explanatory, but failure to do so can result in deformation of the brake discs, noise and squeaks when braking, excessive wear of the brake discs and pads. The instructions explain all the reasons why this is done. With the right setup and stand, there won't be any jittering or hissing that some of these reviews are talking about. IF THE INSTRUCTIONS ARE FOLLOWED there will be no problems. RTFM and take your time!
