2017 ILX Aspec Brake Caliper Pin Boots
 
Hi
All im getting ready for brake job on my 2017 ILX Aspec already have rotors and pads but im thinking it would be good idea to swap out caliper pin boots when re greasing pins.
is there aftermarket boot kits for both front and rear or dealer only option which from what i hear is quite expensive.
Thank you

I don't see why you need to change those. They pop right back in. Unless they are torn, I wouldn't change them.

yes youre right but it wasnt my question.... until i get there to swap rotors and pads, re grease pins and inspect boots at the time i dont know how they look....and if it turns out some are "bad" i would prefer to gave some spares on hand at the time than not, makes sense?

I own a 2015 that has seen many track weekends on those oem calipers. Never had them go bad even in extreme heat conditions.
