Product Details

The DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads line is built for drivers who want a matched rotor-and-pad solution with OE-style fit and finish. The coated rotors are designed to resist rust better than conventional painted or zinc-coated surfaces, while the dry packaging saves prep time during installation. The pads are formulated for stable friction output and reduced break-in effort, making this kit a practical choice for rear brake replacement on BMW 528i, BMW 530i, and BMW 540i applications. Part number 4502-31153 is also a useful reference when searching for a rear brake kit for 1996-2003 BMW 5 Series models.

• Longer stopping distances from depleted friction material
• Brake service delays caused by separate rotor and pad sourcing
