Quiet, Low-Dust Rear Ceramic Brake Pads for the 2017-2025 Honda CR-V
The PowerStop 16-2037 is a Z16 Evolution ceramic rear brake pad set engineered for the 2017-2025 Honda CR-V. The Z16 Evolution pads are pre-scored and chamfered from the factory and include all installation hardware. PowerStop's Z16 ceramic formula delivers low dust output, reduced brake noise, and consistent stopping power across all temperatures, making the 16-2037 an ideal OE replacement upgrade for daily CR-V driving.
Why Z16 Evolution Ceramic Pads Outperform OE on the CR-V
The factory pads on the 2017-2025 Honda CR-V are adequate for standard use but tend to generate brake dust that accumulates on CR-V wheels quickly. The PowerStop 16-2037 Z16 Evolution ceramic formula significantly reduces this dust output while maintaining OE-matched friction levels. The ceramic compound also runs cooler and quieter than semi-metallic alternatives, eliminating the brake squeal that develops as OE pads wear. Pre-scored and chamfered edges reduce the noise and vibration common with square-edged pads, and the included stainless steel hardware prevents the corrosion-induced squealing that develops when original hardware is reused. The 16-2037 is a direct bolt-on pad replacement requiring no caliper or rotor modification.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Honda CR-V years does the 16-2037 fit?The 16-2037 fits the 2017-2025 Honda CR-V rear axle, all trims. Confirm your model year before ordering.
Are these pads a direct replacement for the factory CR-V rear pads?Yes. The 16-2037 is dimensioned to bolt directly into the OEM rear caliper brackets on the 2017-2025 CR-V with no modification required.
How do Z16 ceramic pads compare to the factory pads?The factory CR-V rear pads use a semi-metallic or low-metallic compound that generates more brake dust than ceramic. The Z16 ceramic formula in the 16-2037 significantly reduces dust output, operates more quietly, and runs cooler than the OE compound, making for a cleaner, quieter everyday driving experience.
Do the 16-2037 pads include hardware?Yes. The 16-2037 includes stainless steel installation hardware. Using new hardware prevents the corrosion and vibration that develop when worn original hardware is reused, which is a common cause of brake squeal after a pad replacement.
Do new brake pads need to be broken in?Yes. Perform 8 to 10 moderate stops from 35 mph, allowing the brakes to cool fully between each stop, before aggressive braking. Proper bedding ensures even pad material transfer to the rotor surface.
Will the 16-2037 work with my existing rotors?Yes, if the existing rotors are within the manufacturer's minimum thickness specification and free of deep scoring. Inspect rotors during pad replacement and replace if below spec. For best results, install new pads and rotors together.
Are ceramic pads safe for winter and wet weather driving?Yes. Z16 ceramic pads maintain consistent friction performance in cold and wet conditions. The ceramic compound provides reliable cold-bite that is essential for safe stopping in rain, snow, and low-temperature environments.
Does PowerStop warrant the 16-2037?Yes. PowerStop backs Z16 Evolution pads with a limited warranty on materials and workmanship. Contact PowerStop or your point of purchase for warranty details.
Installation Instructions
- Safely raise the vehicle on jack stands and remove the rear wheels.
- Remove the rear brake caliper by unbolting the caliper mounting bolts. Hang from a hook without stressing the brake line.
- Remove the old brake pads and all old hardware from the caliper carrier.
- Clean the caliper carrier and bracket contact surfaces thoroughly with brake cleaner.
- Install the new stainless steel hardware from the 16-2037 kit into the caliper carrier.
- Apply a thin layer of brake lubricant to the pad contact points on the new hardware. Do not apply to the pad friction surface.
- Install the new Z16 ceramic pads into the caliper carrier.
- Compress the rear caliper piston. Note: CR-V rear pistons may require a wind-back tool to retract correctly.
- Reinstall the caliper over the new pads and torque to Honda factory specification.
- Reinstall the rear wheels and torque to factory specification.
- Pump the brake pedal until firm and verify brake fluid level before driving.
- Complete the full bedding procedure before aggressive braking.
