Product Details and Specifications

This Centric disc brake rotor features a vented design with straight vanes to enhance airflow and reduce heat buildup during braking. The smooth surface finish ensures even pad contact and wear. With a nominal thickness of 0.709 inches (18.000 mm) and a discard thickness of 0.669 inches (17.000 mm), the rotor maintains structural integrity and safety standards. The rotor’s overall height is 2.374 inches (60.300 mm), and it has an outside diameter of 10.276 inches (261.000 mm), matching the original equipment dimensions for the Toyota Cressida. The rotor mounts using four lug holes spaced on a 4.500-inch (114.300 mm) bolt circle diameter, with a center hole diameter of 2.362 inches (60.000 mm). This part does not include bearings or an ABS tone ring.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation
• Addressing rotor thickness below manufacturer discard limits
• Improving braking performance on Toyota Cressida models with OEM fitment
• Resolving uneven brake pad wear due to rotor surface imperfections
• Upgrading to vented rotors for better heat dissipation in daily driving

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor thickness is measured before installation to confirm it meets or exceeds the discard thickness of 0.669 inches (17.000 mm). Clean the rotor surface to remove any protective coatings or debris. Verify the mounting bolt hole circle diameter and stud/lug hole dimensions match the vehicle specifications. Use proper torque settings on lug nuts to avoid rotor warping. Since this rotor does not include bearings or an ABS tone ring, reuse existing components or replace separately if necessary.
