Enhance Braking Performance: Power Stop K4490 Front and Rear Z23 Carbon Fiber Brake Pads with Drilled & Slotted Brake Rotors Kit Review

I don't know if it's worth transferring the old gasket to the new pads as the pads have a backing plate. I didn't install the old gasket, correct me if I'm wrong!

This kit should have everything you need. This does not include all replacement parts needed to install the brakes. You'll have to buy a new set of gear if any of your old ones start to slow down.

I currently have 6,000 miles on these brakes and couldn't be happier. Did I really have to drill a cross? Probably not, but they look cool! I would buy them…

Pros: good price, complete kit with everything you need, parts installed properly Cons: not yet bought this kit for my 2016 Subaru WRX STI. equipment available. This kit includes everything you need to fully engage the front and rear brakes. After installing the pads and discs, I polished the brakes according to the instructions that came with them.
