Developed by Disc Brakes Australia, the DB2217XP uses a semi-metallic carbon fibre friction compound capable of maintaining optimal braking consistency up to 550 degrees C (1,022 degrees F). This makes them equally at home on heavy-duty tow rigs, upgraded 4WDs, street performance builds, and police pursuit vehicles. The DB2217XP replaces the earlier DB2217 and fits the rear axle of the 2011-2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2011-2025 Dodge Durango, and 2011-2015 Chevrolet Caprice. Shims are included, friction material is pre-scorched at the factory, and the pads are ECE R90 approved. DBA recommends pairing with T3 slotted 4000 or 5000 Series rotors for maximum stopping performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey

components since 1977 and is Australia's largest brake disc manufacturer. DBA supplies OE brake components to major vehicle manufacturers and produces aftermarket performance upgrades for street, track, towing, and 4WD applications. The Xtreme Performance XP pad range is DBA's highest-friction street and multi-purpose compound, designed where standard pads are insufficient for the load, temperature, or duty cycle demanded by the application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat vehicles does the DBA DB2217XP fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DB2217XP fits the rear axle of the 2011-2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee (all trims including Laredo, Limited, Overland, Summit, Trailhawk, SRT8, SRT, and Trackhawk), 2011-2025 Dodge Durango, and 2011-2015 Chevrolet Caprice PPV. Always verify your specific model year and trim before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between the DB2217XP and the standard DB2217?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DB2217XP uses DBA's Xtreme Performance carbon fibre semi-metallic compound, which delivers significantly higher initial bite and sustained friction at elevated temperatures compared to the standard DB2217 street compound. The XP suffix denotes the upgraded friction material. The DB2217XP is a direct replacement for the DB2217 with the same dimensional specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat rotors does DBA recommend pairing with the DB2217XP?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDBA recommends using the DB2217XP with their T3 slotted 4000 Series or 5000 Series rotors for maximum stopping performance. The slotted rotor surface works with the slotted pad friction face to improve heat and gas management under repeated hard braking. The pads are also compatible with standard OE smooth rotors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the DBA DB2217XP pads suitable for towing?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The DB2217XP is one of DBA's recommended compounds for heavy towing applications. The semi-metallic carbon fibre material maintains consistent friction under the prolonged, high-load braking events associated with towing a trailer or camper, where standard pads may fade. The 550 degree C temperature limit provides substantial margin over the heat generated in typical towing scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo the DB2217XP pads require a bed-in procedure?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, though the pre-scorched TSP surface shortens the bed-in requirement. DBA recommends a series of moderate stops from 50 to 60 mph, allowing adequate cooling between stops, to transfer a uniform layer of friction material onto the rotor surface. Avoid hard panic stops during the first 200 to 300 miles for best long-term performance and pad life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the DB2217XP pads noisy on cold starts?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome light squeal on the first cold application is normal for performance semi-metallic pads. The included shims significantly reduce noise and vibration during normal driving. Noise during the first several cold applications will diminish as the pad and rotor fully bed in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the DB2217XP sold as a full axle set or per side?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DB2217XP is sold as a complete rear axle set of 4 brake pads. One order covers both the left and right rear calipers for a full rear axle service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does ECE R90 certification mean for the DB2217XP?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eECE R90 is a European brake pad safety standard that requires aftermarket friction materials to perform within 15% of the OEM pad's friction performance at equivalent temperature ranges. DBA's ECE R90 certification on the DB2217XP confirms the pad meets these internationally recognized friction consistency and safety benchmarks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the DB2217XP fit the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk or SRT?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The DB2217XP is confirmed to fit the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 (2011-2021), SRT (2014-2021), and Trackhawk (2018-2021) on the rear axle. These high-performance trims use the same rear brake caliper and pad dimensions as the standard WK2 platform.
