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

The drilled holes and slots help to vent brake pad dust and hot gases away from the rotor surface. This can lead to more consistent braking performance, especially under heavy use, and helps prevent brake fade.

Are these rotors directional?

No, these are non-directional rotors. The drilled and slotted pattern is designed to work effectively regardless of which side of the vehicle they are installed on.

What is the Kangaroo Paw ventilation system?

DBA's Kangaroo Paw ventilation is a patented design that uses a series of pillars between the rotor's cooling vanes. This design increases the surface area for heat dissipation, helping to keep the rotors cooler during operation.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to replace the rear brake rotors on your 1997-2012 Chevrolet Corvette, consider these 4000 Series XS Gold rotors from DBA. They're designed as a direct replacement, meaning they'll fit right onto your C5 or C6 model without any modifications needed.

These rotors are built from high-carbon, heat-treated iron for solid performance. The unique drill and slot pattern on the rotor surface helps to vent brake pad dust and gases, which can improve stopping consistency, especially during harder braking. DBA also uses their patented Kangaroo Paw ventilation system on these rotors, which helps manage heat more effectively than standard designs. The gold finish on the rotor hub adds a nice touch for those who like to show off their wheels.

This set is for the rear of your Corvette. Remember to always replace brake rotors in pairs for balanced braking performance.
