Product Details

This DFC brake service kit is engineered for drivers replacing worn brake components on a Kia Optima. The coated rotors are machined to tight tolerances, finished for smoother contact, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions. The 5000 Advanced ceramic pads are formulated for stable friction performance, while the included hardware kit is designed to restore proper spring tension and caliper movement during brake service. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Brake Issues Addressed
