What This Brake Kit Helps Address

• Rear brake noise, squeal, or vibration
• Rust on exposed rotor surfaces
• Uneven or worn brake pad contact
• Reduced braking smoothness during stop-and-go driving
• Brake service needs on BMW rear axle applications

Installation Notes

Each rotor is processed dry and ready to install, which helps reduce prep work during service. For best results, clean the hub mounting surface before installation and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake bedding procedure after replacement. Verify rear axle fitment by model year and brake configuration before ordering, especially on BMW 220i and 328i applications with listed production or market notes.

Quality Assurance

DFC states that each rotor is inspected for critical dimensions and balance, with vented rotors electronically mill-balanced when required. The rotors include a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. Part number 4512-31251 is built as a complete rear brake service solution for select BMW applications.
