Product Details

The DFC 4512-67097 brake kit is built for drivers servicing the front brakes on a Nissan Maxima and wanting matched components in one package. The coated rotors are processed dry and ready to install, which helps reduce prep time during brake service. The rotor design uses G3000/G11H18 cast iron and a non-directional finish to support even pad bedding and smooth braking feel.

The 5000 Advanced pads are formulated for stable friction performance, with post-curing and scorching used to reduce the need for extended break-in. DFC also pairs the pads with premium shims to help manage brake noise and vibration. The included hardware kit is designed to replace worn or corroded brake hardware that can affect caliper movement and pad wear.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Brake Service Issues

• Front brake noise during stops
• Uneven or premature pad wear
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Reduced braking smoothness from worn hardware
• Longer pedal feel changes caused by fatigued brake components

Installation Notes

Verify front axle fitment before ordering. This kit is listed for 2009-2021 Nissan Maxima front applications and 2022-2023 Nissan Maxima front applications. Clean installation surfaces, inspect caliper condition, and follow proper bedding procedures after installation to help the pads and rotors seat evenly.

Quality Assurance

DFC rotors are 100% inspected for critical dimensions and balance, and each rotor is backed by a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. The brake pads are post-cured and scorched for consistent friction performance, and the hardware kit is engineered to OE-style form, fit, and function.
