DFC 10-13 Audi A3 Rear Drilled & Slotted Geoperformance Rotors 5000 Advanced Brake Pads w/Hardware

DFC is known for making reliable brake components, and this rear kit for your 2010-2012 Audi A3 is a solid example. It bundles together their Geoperformance drilled and slotted rotors with their 5000 Advanced brake pads and all the necessary hardware. This setup is designed to give you a noticeable improvement in stopping power, especially in wet conditions, thanks to the rotor design that helps grab the pads better and clear away debris.

The Geoperformance rotors are cast from G3000/G11H18 iron, meeting OEM specs for durability. They feature a special silver-gray coating that fights rust much better than standard paint or zinc, and this coating is designed to wear away safely as the pads make contact, saving you time on installation since you don't need to clean off oily protective coatings. The drilled holes help reduce heat buildup, while the slots keep the rotor surface clear of dust and gas, preventing pad glazing and ensuring a consistent pedal feel. The 5000 Advanced pads are specifically formulated for your vehicle's axle, and they're post-cured and scorched to minimize break-in time and offer strong stopping power right away. Plus, they include rubber-steel-rubber shims to help cut down on noise and vibration.

This kit also includes DFC hardware, which is often overlooked but crucial for proper brake function. Old hardware can lead to caliper movement, uneven wear, and noise. DFC's hardware is designed to match OEM specifications to ensure everything works together smoothly for optimal braking performance and confidence.
