Default New Brembo Rotors now available!

<img src="http://www.purems.com/images/category/brembo_logo.jpg">

Brembo has introduced some new replacement rotor upgrades for the R8.

These kits utilize the great stock calipers however replace the heavy cast rotors with lighter and larger 380x34mm 2-piece floating rotors.

These rotors come slotted or drilled and include all the necessary hardware to move the calipers appropriately for the larger rotors. These are a direct bolt on upgrade.

Retail pricing starts are $2195, please email us for pricing!

Default Brembo does not recommend changing the rotors on the B7 RS4

During their testing, it was found the stock units have higher heat reistance than any of their aftermarket products. It was suggested to do a pad and fluid change only.

Well, it's the same rotor as the R8, so that doesn't seem to add up.

Default No they are not the same...

The C5 RS6, Gallardo and R8 have the same front rotors. The RS4 is almost identical to Murcielago front rotors (just a different bolt pattern).
