DFC 14-18 Mazda 3 Sport Rear Drilled & Slotted Geoperformance Rotors 5000 Advanced Pads w/Hardware

DFC is known for making reliable brake components, and this rear kit for your 2014-2018 Mazda 3 is a solid option if you're looking to improve your braking performance. It bundles together their Geoperformance drilled and slotted rotors with their 5000 Advanced brake pads and all the necessary hardware, so you get everything you need in one box to get the job done right.

The Geoperformance rotors are cast from G3000/G11H18 iron, which is a standard specification for durability and stability, and they come with a special silver-gray coating that fights rust much better than standard paint or zinc. This coating also means you don't have to spend time cleaning oil off the rotors before installation, saving you time and effort. The drilled holes help reduce heat buildup, while the slots are designed to clear away brake dust and road debris, preventing pad glazing and giving you a more consistent grip, especially in wet conditions. The rotors are also finished with a non-directional pattern to help with faster, smoother brake pad break-in.

The 5000 Advanced brake pads are specifically formulated for each vehicle's axle to ensure balanced braking, which is important for systems like ABS. They're also 100% post-cured and scorched to minimize the break-in period and provide strong stopping power right away. Plus, the included hardware kit addresses common issues like worn-out clips and springs that can lead to noise, uneven wear, and reduced performance. This kit is designed to be a direct replacement, meaning no modifications are needed for installation.
