Product Details

The thermal scorched surface on these PowerStop Z16 Evolution ceramic brake pads means they're ready to go right out of the box, with a fast break-in period.

Plus, the multi-layer rubberized shims help make sure your braking stays quiet, eliminating annoying noise.

These pads are built using positive mold technology, which helps ensure they wear evenly and perform consistently over their lifespan. The backing plate is powder coated to resist rust and corrosion, adding to the pad's overall durability. They also include an electronic wear sensor, so you'll know exactly when it's time for a replacement. They're a solid stock replacement option for your Beetle, Golf, or Jetta.
