What is the benefit of the drilled and slotted design on these rotors?

The slots help to sweep away brake pad dust and gases that can build up between the pad and rotor surface. The drilled holes aid in dissipating heat, both of which contribute to more consistent braking performance.

What makes the 4000 Series XS Gold rotors different from standard rotors?

The 4000 Series XS Gold rotors use a high-carbon, heat-treated iron for better thermal stability and durability. They also feature DBA's patented Kangaroo Paw ventilation and a premium non-directional cross-drilled and slotted pattern for improved cooling and performance.

Does this rotor come with a brake pad wear indicator?

This product listing is for the brake rotors only. Brake pad wear indicators are typically part of the brake pads themselves, and are not included with the rotors.

About this part

Product Details

You're getting a pair of DBA 4000 Series XS Gold rear brake rotors for your 2005-2011 Chevrolet Corvette. These are direct replacement rotors, meaning they're built to fit right onto your existing setup without needing any modifications. The XS Gold series is DBA's top-tier offering, designed to give you a noticeable step up in braking performance, especially when you're pushing your Corvette a bit harder.

What sets these rotors apart is the combination of materials and design. They're made from high-carbon, heat-treated iron, which helps them resist warping and cracking under stress. The unique drill and slot pattern isn't just for looks; the slots help clear out brake pad dust and gases that can build up between the pad and rotor, which means more consistent stopping power. The drilled holes also help with heat dissipation. DBA's patented Kangaroo Paw ventilation system is also incorporated, which is designed to improve cooling and prevent hotspots.

The gold finish on the rotor hub is a nice touch, offering some protection against rust in that area. If you're looking to improve your Corvette's braking feel and performance, especially if you have the Z51 package, these rotors are a solid option to consider.
