Product Description

The PowerStop K1560 Z23 Evolution Sport Front & Rear Brake Kit is a complete 4-wheel brake upgrade for the 1997-2004 Chevrolet Corvette C5 and the 2004 and 2008-2009 Cadillac XLR - everything ships in one box. The drilled and slotted vented rotors at both axles reduce heat buildup under spirited driving and at track days, while the Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic pads deliver improved stopping power and significantly less brake dust than factory pads.

G3000 grade iron rotors are precision-cast to strict OE tolerances for a direct bolt-on fit with no modifications. Dual-layer rubberized shims keep braking near-silent, and the zinc-plated rotor finish resists corrosion over time. Fits all C5 Corvette variants - Base and Z06, with or without the "Corvette" caliper logo. Note: the Cadillac XLR-V (supercharged) is excluded as it uses a different, larger Brembo brake system.
