Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rotor condition, caliper type, and brake package before installation. Several listed applications require an electronic wear sensor, and some fitments note Blue Caliper, M Performance Brakes, M Sport Brakes, or the absence of abutment clips. Match the vehicle’s brake configuration exactly to the fitment notes for the correct front pad set.
