Product Line Details
The Quality-Built Premium Brake Pads line is engineered around vehicle-specific friction compounds rather than a one-formula-fits-all approach. That helps match the pad material to the braking demands of each application, including Hyundai Elantra front brake pads, Kia Forte front brake pads, and other listed front axle fitments. Part number 1001-1543C is part of that premium ceramic lineup.

These ceramic disc brake pads are made for front axle replacement on select Hyundai Elantra, Elantra GT, Elantra Coupe, Veloster, and Kia Forte, Forte5, Forte Koup, and Soul models. The copper-free friction compound is formulated for dependable braking across a wide temperature range, while the integrally molded design, adhesive backed shims, and included abutment clips support quiet, stable pad operation. If you are searching for 2014-2018 Kia Forte5 front ceramic brake pads or 2011-2016 Hyundai Elantra front brake pads, 1001-1543C is a direct-fit option for the listed vehicles.
