PowerStop Z17 Rear Ceramic Brake Pads 17-905 — Low-Dust, Quiet OE-Style Replacement with Hardware

PowerStop Z17 Replacement Ceramic Brake Pads (rear) deliver quiet, low-dust everyday stopping power in a bolt-on OE-style replacement kit.

These Z17 ceramic pads are engineered to be a direct-fit substitute for many Nissan, Infiniti and select Suzuki rear brake applications. The set pairs a low-dust ceramic friction formula with chamfered, slotted faces and multi-layer rubberized shims to reduce noise, shorten break-in time, and keep wheels cleaner between washes. Stainless-steel installation hardware is included so the pads bolt in without modification.

How do these pads affect day-to-day driving?

On a daily-driven vehicle the Z17 pads prioritize predictable, quiet braking and minimal dust. Their ceramic compound and precision shaping aim to give smooth pedal feel and consistent stopping performance through normal temperature ranges.

• Chamfered and slotted pad faces reduce vibration for quieter stops.
• Low-dust ceramic formula limits residue on wheels.
• Thermally scorched surface speeds break-in so performance is reliable sooner.
• Designed as an OE-style replacement—no system changes needed.

Will installation be difficult for a DIYer?

Installation is designed to be straightforward: the kit includes stainless-steel installation hardware so the pads mount like the original equipment parts. No cutting, drilling, or caliper modification is required for compatible vehicles.

• Complete rear pad set plus stainless-steel hardware included in the box.
• Bolt-on fit for listed Nissan, Infiniti, and select Suzuki rear applications.
• Standard hand tools and a jack are typically all you need for a home install.
• Faster break-in reduces initial bedding procedures compared with raw material pads.

How do these pads protect my wheels and reduce noise?

The Z17 compound uses a cleaner ceramic blend that produces less airborne and rim-surface dust than many semi-metallic options. Multi-layer rubberized shims and engineered slots/chamfers help suppress squeal and harsh noises during normal braking events.

• Clean-Ride ceramic minimizes visible brake dust buildup on wheels.
• Rubberized shims absorb vibration for quieter operation.
• Slots and chamfers promote even wear and reduce harsh engagement sounds.
