Don't install upgraded pads at the rear of your vehicle unless the front is also upgraded. The Thermic Black coating on the discs rotors is an anti - corrosion layer that offers long - term rust resistance. There's no need to remove it before installation. Avoid using brake cleaner or other methods to remove this coating, as it's not covered by the EBC warranty. The brake pads will naturally remove the coating in the swept area within the first 10 to 20 stops after installation. This product fits a wide range of models, including Chrysler 200 (2011 - 2014, Limited, LX, S, Touring), Chrysler Sebring (2007 - 2010, Base, Limited, LX, Touring), Dodge Avenger (2008 - 2014, various sub - models), Dodge Caliber (2008 - 2010, various sub - models), Mitsubishi Lancer (2008 - 2017, multiple sub - models), and Mitsubishi Outlander/Outlander Sport (2009 - 2013, multiple sub - models).

Using this EBC S2 brake kit is easy. First, make sure to follow the rule: only install upgraded pads at the rear if the front is also upgraded. When it comes to the discs rotors, don't worry about removing the Thermic Black coating before installation. Just put the parts in place as usual. Once you've installed the kit on your vehicle, drive normally. The brake pads will remove the coating in the swept area within the first 10 to 20 stops. Here are some important things to note. Never use brake cleaner or any other method to try to remove the Thermic Black coating. If you do, the EBC warranty won't cover it. Also, always double - check if your vehicle model and year are on the list of compatible models. For maintenance, keep an eye on your brakes regularly. Check for any signs of wear and tear, like unusual noises or reduced braking performance. If you notice anything wrong, it might be time to have your brakes inspected by a professional.
