Product Description

The PowerStop Z26-2451 Z26 Street Warrior Rear Brake Pads are a direct-fit high-performance upgrade for all 2023-2026 Toyota GR Corolla trims, including the Core, Premium, Circuit Edition, and the limited Morizo Edition. Designed for GR Corolla owners who demand cleaner, quieter rear braking without sacrificing the aggressive stopping confidence this AWD hot hatch delivers, these pads use PowerStop's Z26 Street Warrior compound - rated to resist fade up to 1,500°F - a significant step above the standard Z23 formula and a strong match for the GR Corolla's track-derived rear brake setup. The result is reduced brake dust on the GR's distinctive alloy wheels and a sharper, more confident rear pedal feel under demanding conditions.

Each pad is thermally scorched at the factory for immediate, consistent friction from the first stop, with chamfered and slotted edges and a dual-layer rubberized shim stack that virtually eliminates brake noise. The powder-coated backing plate provides long-term corrosion protection. These are rear-axle-only pads - no pad wear sensor is required or included. Fitment covers both the original 6-speed manual GR Corolla and the 8-speed Direct Automatic Transmission (DAT) variants introduced for the 2025 model year, as the rear brake hardware is unchanged between gearbox options.
