Fitment checklist for Infiniti
Match the disc diameter, not just the model
Many models ship two or three brake packages in the same model year. Measure the disc or check the caliper casting number before ordering.
Buy pads and hardware together
Shims, clips and abutment plates wear with the pads. Reusing flattened clips is the most common cause of a squeal after a fresh brake job.
Ceramic vs semi-metallic
Ceramic pads dust less and stay quieter; semi-metallic bite harder when hot and suit towing or heavy vehicles.
Coated discs in wet climates
Geomet or similar coatings stop the hub face and vents rusting, which keeps run-out low over the disc's life.
Frequently asked questions
- Do I need new discs every time I change pads?
- Not always. Measure the disc thickness against the minimum stamped on the hat. If it is within about 1 mm of minimum, replace it — most modern discs are too thin to be machined.
- Can I change pads on one wheel only?
- No. Always replace pads in axle pairs so braking force stays even side to side.
- How long should brake pads last?
- Roughly 25,000–65,000 miles (40,000–105,000 km) depending on driving style, vehicle weight and pad compound.
- Are Infiniti brakes parts expensive?
- Infiniti sits in the premium tier, so genuine parts carry a premium. OE-supplier brands make the same components without the badge markup.
