Brembo 08.6897.11 Disc Brake Rotor - Rear

Brembo Rear Rotor for Subaru and Saab

Brembo 08.6897.11 is a rear disc brake rotor built as a direct OE-style replacement for select Subaru and Saab applications. It uses grey cast iron construction and a UV-coated surface to help protect the disc, including the braking plate surfaces, while supporting consistent braking performance.

The Brembo Premium UV Coated Rotor line focuses on OE-equivalent fit and finish with corrosion protection and application-specific engineering. For Subaru Forester rear rotor replacement, Subaru Impreza rear brake service, or Saab 9-2X rear rotor maintenance, this rotor is built to match the original braking setup.

Product Details

Brembo 08.6897.11 is engineered as a direct replacement rotor that meets or exceeds OEM specifications for the listed rear applications. The UV coating helps resist corrosion on exposed surfaces, while the grey cast iron construction supports stable braking feel and reduced noise and vibration where applicable. This rotor is a practical choice for restoring rear brake performance on 1990-2008 Subaru Legacy, 1993-2008 Subaru Impreza and Forester, and 2005-2006 Saab 9-2X models.

This part cross-references Centric Parts 120.47011 and DuraGo BR31043 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Rear brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotor surfaces
• Corrosion on the braking surface and rotor hat area
• Noise and vibration from aged rear brake components
• Reduced braking consistency from rotors below minimum thickness
• Brake service needs on Subaru Forester, Subaru Impreza, Subaru Legacy, and Saab 9-2X rear axles

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 1998-2008 Subaru Forester, rear. Fits 1998-2007 Subaru Impreza, rear. Fits 1993-1996 Subaru Impreza, rear. Fits 2005-2006 Saab 9-2X, rear. Fits 1990-1999 Subaru Legacy, rear. Verify rotor dimensions, hub fitment, and minimum thickness before installation. Brembo recommends replacing rotors and pads together to restore braking performance, and pairing this rotor with Brembo NAO/Ceramic or Low Met brake pads can help maintain balanced brake service.

Quality Assurance

Brembo develops this Premium UV Coated OE Equivalent Rotor line to provide direct replacement fitment with OE-level specifications and corrosion protection. Intelligent marking locations identify the part number and minimum thickness for easier service checks.
