Front Ceramic Brake Pads for Subaru

Power Stop Z16 Evolution front brake pads are built for drivers who want low-dust, quiet braking with OE-style fit and consistent pedal feel. This Front Z16 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads set is a direct replacement for select Subaru Impreza and Subaru Legacy front applications, including part number 16-722.

The Z16 line focuses on ceramic friction material, thermal scorched pad surfaces for faster break-in, and OE positive mold construction for even wear. For Subaru Impreza and Legacy front brake service, 16-722 provides a practical stock-replacement option with the fitment and finish expected in everyday driving.

Key Features

Detailed Product Overview

Power Stop 16-722 is part of the Z16 Evolution ceramic brake pad line, a front disc brake pad set engineered as an affordable stock replacement. The ceramic formula is selected to reduce brake dust while maintaining stopping performance, and the pad construction uses OE-style molding to support even contact across the rotor surface. With chamfered edges, slotted faces, and included shims, these pads are built for quiet, predictable operation on daily-driven vehicles.

Fitment includes 1997-2001 Subaru Impreza, front and 1997-2000 Subaru Legacy, front. This part cross-references Wagner Brake ZD722 and Raybestos Brakes SGD722C for the same application. If you are searching for front brake pads for a 1997-2001 Subaru Impreza or 1997-2000 Subaru Legacy, part number 16-722 is the direct reference to verify.

What These Brake Pads Help Address

• Excess brake dust on front wheels
• Brake squeal during normal street driving
