Complete OE Quality Rotors and Pads in One Box
The Brembo BREKT00A98 disc brake kit pairs Brembo OE-specification rotors with ceramic brake pads in a single box, offering a matched replacement for vehicles using this caliper and rotor configuration. Part No. KT00A98 is an OE-style front brake kit that delivers factory-matching stopping performance using the same quality standards Brembo applies to its OEM contracts with major vehicle manufacturers. The ceramic pad compound in this kit generates low dust output compared to semi-metallic compounds and operates quietly at normal street temperatures. The included rotors carry Brembo’s UV-coated finish on non-contact surfaces to resist surface oxidation during storage and initial use. Because Brembo produces friction materials and rotors as a matched system, the pad and rotor are optimized to bed in together quickly and deliver consistent pedal feel from the first use. Verify fitment against your vehicle’s VIN before ordering, as OE brake kits are application-specific by caliper bolt pattern, rotor diameter, and brake hose routing.
Key Features

FAQ
What is the BREKT00A98?
The BREKT00A98 is a Brembo OE front disc brake kit (Part No. KT00A98) that includes matching UV-coated rotors and ceramic brake pads sized and specified as a direct OE replacement for the vehicle application this kit covers.
How do I confirm this kit fits my vehicle?
Because OE brake kits are application-specific, verify compatibility using your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN against Brembo’s fitment catalog or contact us with your year, make, model, and trim before ordering. This ensures the rotor diameter, pad dimension, and caliper bolt pattern are correct for your vehicle.
What is the advantage of a matched rotor and pad kit over buying components separately?
Brembo engineers the pad compound and rotor friction surface as a system, which results in faster and more even bedding and more consistent pedal feel compared to mixing brands or compounds not designed to work together.
How does ceramic compound in this kit compare to semi-metallic pads?
Ceramic compound pads generate significantly less brake dust on wheel surfaces and operate more quietly at normal street temperatures compared to semi-metallic pads. They are well-matched for daily driving where low dust, quiet operation, and long rotor life are priorities.
Do these rotors come ready to install or do they need resurfacing?
Brembo OE rotors come ready to install. A light wipe with brake cleaner to remove the UV coating’s protective film from the friction surface is recommended before installation.
Is a break-in procedure required after installing this kit?
Yes. Perform 8 to 10 moderate stops from approximately 30 mph to allow the ceramic pad material to transfer evenly onto the rotor friction surface. Avoid hard stops or complete stops immediately after installation.
How long will these rotors and pads last under normal street use?
Lifespan depends on driving style, vehicle weight, and usage conditions. Brembo OE ceramic pads typically last 30,000 to 60,000 miles under normal driving, and OE-specification rotors have a similar service life when used with a matched pad compound.
Can I install just the pads from this kit without replacing the rotors?
Brembo recommends replacing rotors and pads together for optimal performance and even wear. Installing new pads on worn or scored rotors reduces braking effectiveness and pad life.
Install Instructions
- Lift the vehicle and safely support it on rated jack stands, then remove the affected wheel.
- Remove the caliper from the bracket without disconnecting the brake line and suspend it to prevent hose stress.
- Remove the old brake pads from the caliper bracket and clean all metal contact surfaces with brake cleaner.
- Remove the rotor from the hub, taking note of any retaining hardware.
- Clean the rotor hat and hub mating surface thoroughly to prevent lateral runout after installation.
- Wipe the new Brembo rotor friction surface with brake cleaner to remove the protective coating before mounting.
- Install the new rotor and torque any rotor retaining hardware to vehicle specification.
- Retract the caliper piston to full retraction using a piston retraction tool.
- Install the new BREKT00A98 ceramic pads into the caliper bracket with the correct orientation.
- Reinstall the caliper and torque mounting bolts to factory specification, then reinstall the wheel and perform the bedding procedure.
