The K7528 pairs PowerStop's drilled and slotted cross-drilled rotors with Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads in a single rear brake kit. This kit upgrades the rear braking system beyond OE specification, reducing heat buildup during sustained braking and delivering improved pedal feel and stopping confidence for everyday street driving and spirited use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat Z23 Evolution Sport Braking Delivers for the CR-V\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CR-V platform benefits from the K7528's drilled and slotted rotor design, which vents heat and gases from the braking surface during sustained stops. The cross-drilled holes reduce rotor operating temperature while the slots sweep debris and gas from the pad-to-rotor contact zone, maintaining consistent friction throughout each stop. PowerStop machines Z23 rotors with a proprietary coating that prevents the surface rust common on uncoated aftermarket rotors. The Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic pads included in the K7528 are engineered to work with the drilled and slotted surface, providing low dust, low noise stopping power that outperforms factory pads in both comfort and fade resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete rear brake kit with Z23 drilled and slotted rotors and Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2017-2025 Honda CR-V all trims rear axle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrilled holes reduce rotor operating temperature during sustained braking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlots sweep gas and debris from the braking surface for consistent pad-to-rotor contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProprietary rotor coating prevents surface rust and maintains appearance between brake applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZ23 carbon-fiber ceramic pads deliver low dust, low noise performance with strong fade resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll installation hardware included for a complete rear brake service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number K7528 engineered specifically for the 2017-2025 Honda CR-V rear brake platform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eYear Range\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMake\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2017-2025\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHonda\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCR-V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number (MPN)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eK7528\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePSBK7528\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePowerStop\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKit Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eZ23 Evolution Sport Rear Brake Kit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePosition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRotor Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDrilled and Slotted\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePad Compound\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eZ23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardware Included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUPC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eN\/A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2x PowerStop Z23 drilled and slotted rear brake rotors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x set Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic rear brake pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete installation hardware kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout PowerStop\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePowerStop is a leading US brake manufacturer dedicated to making brake upgrades simple and affordable. The Z23 Evolution Sport line is designed for drivers who want noticeably better stopping performance than OE without the cost or complexity of a full racing brake system. Every K7528 kit is engineered to bolt directly onto the factory CR-V brake system with no modifications required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Honda CR-V years does the K7528 fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe K7528 fits the 2017-2025 Honda CR-V, all trims, rear axle. Confirm your model year before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the K7528 include both rotors and pads?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The K7528 is a complete rear brake kit including two drilled and slotted rear rotors and a full set of Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic pads, plus all installation hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between Z23 and OE replacement rotors?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOE replacement rotors are plain-faced and designed to match factory braking performance. Z23 rotors are drilled and slotted to actively reduce heat and gas buildup during braking. The result is reduced brake fade, improved pedal feel during sustained stops, and better performance under conditions that stress the OE system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWill drilled and slotted rotors work for normal street driving?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The K7528 is designed for street use and is fully street legal. The drilled and slotted design improves everyday braking feel and reduces the fade that can occur during long downhill descents or repeated hard stops in traffic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDo the K7528 pads and rotors need break-in?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Perform 8 to 10 moderate stops from 35 to 40 mph, allowing full cooling between each stop, before using the brakes aggressively. Proper bedding ensures even pad transfer and maximizes the performance of the drilled and slotted surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the K7528 require any modification to the CR-V?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The K7528 is a direct bolt-on replacement for the 2017-2025 CR-V rear brake system. No modification to the caliper brackets, lines, or sensors is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs the K7528 covered by a warranty?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. PowerStop backs Z23 Evolution Sport brake kits with a limited warranty on materials and workmanship. Contact PowerStop or your point of purchase for warranty details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eAre Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic pads low dust?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic pads produce significantly less brake dust than semi-metallic pads and keep CR-V wheels noticeably cleaner in normal driving. They also run quieter and provide strong cold-temperature bite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafely raise the vehicle on jack stands and remove the rear wheels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove the rear brake caliper by unbolting the caliper mounting bolts.
