Power Stop 16-18 Mazda CX-5 Front Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Kit

If you're looking to give your 2016-2024 Mazda CX-5 a noticeable boost in stopping power for your daily drives, this PowerStop Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Kit is a solid option. It's designed to be a direct bolt-on replacement for your stock front brakes, meaning you won't need any special modifications to install it. This kit bundles together everything you need to get a significant upgrade in one package.

The kit features PowerStop's Z23 Evolution Sport carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads, which are formulated to offer improved braking performance over standard ceramic pads. A notable benefit of this compound is its low-dust characteristic, which third-party tests showed produced about 30% less dust than original equipment pads, helping to keep your wheels cleaner. These pads work in tandem with the included drilled and slotted rotors. The drilling and slotting help dissipate heat and gases, keeping the brakes cooler and ensuring consistent performance, while the zinc plating on the rotors offers protection against rust and corrosion.

You'll also find that the kit includes premium stainless-steel hardware and high-temperature ceramic brake lubricant, making the installation process smoother. The multi-layer rubberized shims on the pads are there to help ensure virtually noise-free braking. It's a well-built kit that brings together components engineered to work together for better stopping, durability, and a cleaner look.
