Key Features

• Rear disc brake kit for select Kia Optima and Hyundai Sonata models
• DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
• Dry-processed rotors arrive ready to install
• Non-directional rotor finish supports even pad bed-in and smoother braking
• DFC 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads with post-cured friction material
• Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise and vibration control
• Hardware kit uses PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel

Product Details

DFC GEOSPEC rotors are cast to OEM-style G3000/G11H18 specifications, machined to tight tolerances, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions. The coated surface helps resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc finishes, while the dry packaging avoids the need to clean oil from the rotor before installation. The 5000 Advanced pads are post cured and scorched to reduce initial break-in time and deliver stable friction performance from the first stop. This part number, 4512-03127, is a practical choice for rear brake service on Kia Optima and Hyundai Sonata vehicles where consistent pedal feel and quieter operation matter.

What This Brake Kit Helps Address

• Rear brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Uneven braking caused by worn or warped rotors
• Excessive caliper movement from aged hardware
• Reduced stopping performance from worn friction material
