BRAKES ARE A SAFETY CRITICAL PART OF A MOTOR VEHICLE.
Brake components should be installed by a competent mechanic in a professional manner. Any incorrect installation of brake components can cause a major safety problem or an accident. If you are not a competent and qualified mechanic you should not attempt to install these products, but should take the vehicle to a vehicle dealer or competent automotive mechanic for their installation.
Disc brake pads and rotors are wear items and as such, should be inspected regularly and replaced as necessary. Read More.
Brembo Sport drilled brake rotors are for drivers who want to improve the looks and performance of their vehicle’s original braking system without having to change additional brake components. Brembo Sport drilled brake rotors provide excellent stopping power in everyday traffic, as well as more spirited, high performance street and highway driving.
Brembo Sport drilled brake rotors match the vehicle’s Original Equipment rotor’s dimensions and are fully compatible with its hubs, brake calipers and road wheels. Front and rear Brembo Sport drilled brake rotors are available to provide a matched appearance on all four corners of the vehicle and employ one-piece vented or solid rotors depending on the vehicle’s original equipment specifications.
Starting with select castings, Brembo Sport drilled brake rotors undergo the race-born practice of cross drilling to provide multiple paths to disperse built-up heat and gasses. The Brembo Sport rotor’s cross-drilled holes are bi-angle chamfered at the rotor’s outer surfaces to help reduce the cracking caused by repeated, high stress, high temperature brake applications. Brembo Sport drilled brake rotors are sold in axle pairs.
Brembo Sport drilled brake rotors are coated for corrosion resistance to help eliminate rust and to offer a bold, aggressive appearance to enhance the look of the vehicle’s road wheels.
Brembo Sport drilled brake rotors are designed to meet the challenges of high performance street driving while adding an authentic, race-ready look. NOTE: Light truck and SUV rotors with studs or bearings are uncoated.
NOTE: Brembo Sport drilled brake rotors are not recommended by The Tire Rack for track use or intended to be used in conjunction with race compound brake pads on the street. For severe duty brake demands see Brembo Sport slotted brake rotors.
IMPORTANT REMINDER: Slotted, drilled or dimpled rotors offered as OEM replacements should not be considered appropriate for high-speed track use.
While grooved, drilled and slotted rotors offer an enhanced appearance and add some resistance to the boundary layer of gasses that can build up between the pad and rotor, they are not designed to withstand the extreme temperatures that are produced on the racetrack. If they are used on the track, it is very important that the rotors be carefully inspected and should not be driven on if even minor signs of deterioration are seen. Note, too, that if any products are used on the track they are not warrantable.
Additional Information
Los discos de freno con agujeros Sport Brembo, fueron desarrollado para conductores que deseen mejorar la apariencia y rendimiento del sistema de frenos original, sin necesidad de cambiar otros componentes. Los discos Brembo Sport con agujeros ofrecen un excelente poder de frenado en el manejo diario, de paseo, alto rendimiento en carretera o manejo en autopistas.
Los frenos de disco Sport Brembo son ofrecido para ejes frontales o traseros y así asegurar un apariencia pareja en las cuatro ruedas. Dependiendo de las especificaciones de Equipo Original del vehículo, los disco pueden ser de una pieza, ventilados o sólidos.
Primero se funde un metal especial y luego se abren agujeros, como en los discos de frenos utilizados en carreras, así los Brembo Sport con agujeros dispersan la acumulación de calor y gases que se produce al frenar. Los agujeros son biselados y tienen doble ángulo en la superficie para ayudar a reducir la fragmentación causada por las temperaturas altas y estrés constante. Los discos Brembo Sport con agujeros son vendidos en pares para el mismo eje.
Los discos con agujero Brembo Sport poseen una capa resistente a la corrosión que ayuda a eliminar el óxido, al mismo tiempo que mejora la apariencia del vehículo.
El Brembo Sport con agujeros son fabricados para alcanzar los retos de un rendimiento efectivo sobre la carretera, además de agregar una apariencia de “listo para competir”. NOTA: Discos para camiones ligeros y utilitarios deportivos con pernos y cojinetes no poseen la capa protectora.
NOTA: Tire Rack no recomienda el uso de los discos Brembo Sport con agujeros en pistas o circuitos de competencia, tampoco se recomienda combinarlos con pastillas fabricadas para carreras. Para frenos de trabajo severo lea: Discos de freno Brembo Sport con ranuras.
IMPORTANTE: Discos con ranuras, agujeros o con hoyuelos ofrecidos como repuestos de Equipo Original de Fabrica (OEM, por sus siglas en inglés), no deben ser considerados apropiados para uso en carreras a velocidades elevadas.
A pesar de que los discos con agujeros o ranuras tienen la apariencia de competencia y pueden resistir ciertos gases que se forman entre las pastilla y el disco al frenar, estos no pueden aguantar la temperatura extrema que se alcanza en las carreras de circuito. Si son utilizados en carreras es muy importante que sean inspeccionados y de encontrarse rasgos de deterioro, no utilice el vehículo. Si estos productos son utilizados en carreras de pista o circuito perderán su garantía.

Brakes made a few clunk/rubbing type noises after installation, but it was most likely due to break-in from the coating on the rotors. Noise went away after a few miles and a few hard stops. Otherwise excellent product.

I used the pads on the front of my daily driver civic. They were very smooth and extremely quiet even while creeping along in stop-n-go traffic. They made almost no noticeable brake dust. Their downfall came when I turbo charged the car. I quickly discovered the brake fade issues with a grocery getter brake pad so I had to upgrade to metallic pads. When I pulled them off nearly 40k miles later they still had most of their life left!! I recommend them for any grocery getter, but definitely not for spirited driving or track days.
