Detailed Product Description

This Power Stop rotor is specifically designed for the front braking system of BMW i3 and i3s vehicles. The high carbon cast iron material provides improved thermal conductivity and resistance to warping under heavy braking conditions. The vented rotor design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, helping to dissipate heat more effectively and maintain consistent braking performance. The Geomet coating offers a protective layer that resists rust and corrosion, which is especially beneficial in environments exposed to moisture and road salts.

The rotor's precise dimensions, including a nominal thickness of 0.79 inches and an outside diameter of 11.00 inches, ensure proper fitment and compatibility with the specified BMW models. The mounting bolt hole circle diameter and lug hole quantity are engineered to match factory specifications, facilitating straightforward installation.
