FYI for lowering your Edge with H&R springs and PowerStop brake kit


Recommended Posts

Does power stop makes a z23 kit for the gen II edge? I'm looking for a performance brake upgrade without having to go all in for a $4k Rotora BBK. The more I drive my '16 Sport, the more I get frustrated with these seemingly insufficient brakes and is probably my biggest criticisms of this car. There is plenty about it I do love, but these brakes are killing me! :drop:

 

Anyone have suggestions? I don't mind investing some decent $$ in better brakes, but I'm trying to avoid spending $4k.

So yes, it seems the kit exists ... I would probably swap out the pads for EBC Yellowstuff, if available. z23 are good, but Yellowstuff is substantially better. Front

Thanks for the links. I contacted Rotora and their kit is actually like $6k for all four corners and that's with a 50% discount and a limited sponsorship agreement. This just includes agreeing to put on fender stickers for a year and posting reviews and going to some car shows, etc.
