Product Details
The DFC Brake Rotors - Drilled and Slotted - Silver line focuses on performance-oriented braking with OE-spec construction. These rotors use G3000/G11H18 cast iron and are machined to match factory specifications for durability, reliability, and consistent braking behavior. The drilled-and-slotted design increases pad bite, helps manage heat, and keeps the rotor face cleaner during repeated stops.
Part number 7002-80083 is a direct-fit rear rotor option for Mazda RX-8 owners looking for a replacement that balances everyday drivability with added braking performance. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Common Brake Issues This Rotor Set Can Address
- Brake fade from excess heat during repeated stops
- Reduced pad bite in wet or debris-prone conditions
- Uneven pad transfer or pad glazing
- Rotor surface wear that affects braking smoothness
