Review on πŸ” Wagner QuickStop ZD1445 Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set: Top-notch Performance for Unrivaled Braking Efficiency by Craig Rossman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

These ceramic pads look just as good as OEM

They fit perfectly on a 2012 Kia Optima Hybrid (mine didn't have a rear electric parking brake). The dealer asked $300 for a replacement. These ceramic pads look just as good as the originals. Not too much to wear out the rotors, but just enough, like the factory rotors, to work well. The included hardware clips are a plus, the included ones would be a hassle to clean as they tend to rust. Comes with lubricant. Check the caliper pins to make sure they are not frozen. Don't forget to pull out and grease the pins. Also lube the sliders, my goodness, lube just about everything but the surface to prevent rusting/seizing and to dampen vibration. It took me about an hour and a half for both sides as I didn't have any tools. Best $300 saved!

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Almost never
