What is the benefit of a two-piece rotor design?

A two-piece rotor design, like this one from DBA, separates the rotor friction surface from the hub assembly. This allows for lighter weight due to the aluminum hat and better heat management, as the hat can dissipate heat more effectively than a solid one-piece rotor.

What is the purpose of the drilled and slotted pattern on the rotor?

The cross-drilled holes help to vent hot gases and heat that build up during braking, preventing brake fade. The slots help to sweep away brake pad dust and debris, ensuring consistent contact between the pad and rotor for improved stopping power.

Does this rotor come with everything needed for installation?

This product includes the two-piece rotor and the gold-colored aluminum hat. It is designed as a direct replacement for the original equipment, but it's always recommended to check the manufacturer's installation instructions to see if any additional hardware or brake fluid is needed for your specific vehicle.

Product Details

DBA is well-known for making strong brake components, and their 5000 Series XS rotors are a prime example of that. If you're looking to upgrade the braking performance on your 2004-2014 Subaru Impreza, 2017 BRZ, or 2015-2016 WRX STI, these two-piece rotors are a solid choice. They take the proven technology from DBA's 4000 Series and package it into a lighter, more efficient design.

What sets these apart is the two-piece construction. The rotor itself is paired with a gold-colored aluminum hat. This aluminum hat isn't just for looks; it helps reduce overall weight, which can make a difference in how your car handles, and it also aids in dissipating heat away from the hub. Plus, it can simplify maintenance over time. The rotor surface features a non-directional cross-drilled and slotted pattern. The drilling helps to vent gases and heat, while the slots sweep away dust and debris, giving you a more consistent and powerful bite when you need to slow down, especially during spirited driving or track use.

These rotors are designed for a direct fit on the specified Subaru models. The combination of the drilled and slotted rotor face and the lightweight aluminum hat makes them a popular upgrade for drivers who want improved braking performance and a more premium look for their vehicle's wheels.
