• Compatible with Saab 9-2X and Subaru Forester, Impreza, Legacy
• Directional drilled and slotted surface for improved brake pad bite and cooling
• Rust resistant coating extends rotor life and reduces corrosion
• Solid rotor design with 265.5 mm outside diameter and 10 mm nominal thickness
• Geospec silver grey hat finish for corrosion resistance and aesthetic appeal
• 5 bolt holes with 12.8 mm diameter and 100 mm bolt circle diameter
• Discard thickness of 8.5 mm ensures safe rotor replacement timing

Detailed Product Features and Specifications

This DFC Geoperformance Rotor - Drilled and Slotted is a solid disc brake rotor featuring a 265.5 mm outside diameter and an overall height of 65.7 mm. The rotor’s nominal thickness is 10 mm, with a discard thickness of 8.5 mm, providing clear service limits for maintenance. The rotor surface is both drilled and slotted in a directional pattern, which helps to evacuate gases, dust, and water from the braking surface, improving braking consistency and reducing fade during demanding driving conditions.

The rotor hat is finished in Geospec silver grey, offering additional protection against rust and corrosion. The entire rotor is coated with a rust-resistant layer to further extend its service life. It features 5 bolt holes with a diameter of 12.8 mm and a bolt circle diameter of 100 mm, matching the stud/lug hole pattern for secure fitment. The center hole diameter is 58.1 mm, ensuring proper alignment on the hub.
