How do I break in these PowerStop Z16 Evolution brake pads?

These pads feature a thermal scorched surface, which means they have a fast break-in. For best results, perform a series of moderate stops from about 35 mph down to 10 mph without coming to a complete halt. Repeat this 5-10 times, allowing a short cool-down period between sets.

Will these brake pads cause a lot of dust?

No, the Z16 Evolution ceramic formula is specifically designed to be a low-dust option. This means you should see significantly less brake dust compared to standard pads, helping to keep your wheels cleaner.

Do these brake pads come with everything needed for installation?

These brake pads include an integral electronic wear sensor. However, it is always recommended to inspect your brake hardware, such as caliper bolts and pins, and replace them if necessary during installation.

Product Details

PowerStop is known for making brake kits that offer a noticeable improvement over stock. These Z16 Evolution ceramic brake pads are a prime example, designed as an affordable stock replacement that brings a lot to the table for your 2001-2005 Audi Allroad Quattro. They're built to give you more confidence behind the wheel by improving stopping power while also cutting down on the brake dust that can make your wheels look dirty.

What sets these pads apart is their ceramic formula, which is specifically chosen to maximize stopping power and keep your wheels cleaner. They use positive mold technology, meaning the pad material is molded under heat and pressure, which helps ensure consistent wear and performance over time. Plus, they've got multi-layer rubberized shims and are chamfered and slotted to help eliminate noise, so you get a quiet ride. The thermal scorched surface means they break in quickly, so you don't have to wait long to feel the difference.

You'll also find that the backing plate is powder coated to resist rust and corrosion, adding to the pad's lifespan. And don't worry about missing when they're worn out – these pads include an integral electronic wear sensor to let you know when it's time for a new set.
