Product Details

DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are engineered to OE-style specifications using G3000/G11H18 cast iron rotor construction and tight machining tolerances. The coated rotor surface is designed to fight corrosion while remaining simple to install, and the non-directional finish helps promote consistent contact with the pad surface. The pad compound is developed through DFC’s friction research process and is assembled with NVH-focused shims for quieter operation. This part number, 4502-45060, is a practical rear brake service solution for drivers looking to replace worn components on a Chevrolet Cruze rear brake kit, Chevrolet Sonic rear brake kit, Chevrolet Trax rear brake kit, or Buick Encore rear brake kit.

What This Brake Kit Helps Address

• Rear brake noise, squeal, or vibration
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Uneven braking feel from worn rear rotors and pads
• Extended stopping distance caused by worn friction material
• Brake service jobs where a complete rear rotor-and-pad kit is preferred
