Rear Brake Kit for Mini Cooper

The Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads - Ceramic and Hardware kit is built for rear brake service on select Mini Cooper applications. Part number 4512-32045 combines coated rotors, ceramic pads, and matching hardware in one brake service kit for a cleaner, more complete repair.

Key Features

• Rear disc brake kit for select 2015-2022 Mini Cooper applications
• DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
• 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads with post-cured friction material
• Scorched pads for reduced initial break-in time and consistent first-stop performance
• Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise, vibration, and harshness control
• Dry-processed rotors that are ready to install without oil removal
• Non-directional rotor finish for smoother pad bed-in and quieter braking
• Hardware kit uses PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel

Product Details

Part number 4512-32045 is a rear disc brake kit engineered for Mini Cooper rear brake service. The DFC GEOSPEC rotor coating is designed to resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc finishes, while the G3000/G11H18 cast iron rotor construction is machined to OE-style tolerances for durability and stability. The 5000 Advanced ceramic pads are formulated for stable friction performance and are assembled with shims that help reduce brake noise and vibration. This kit is a practical choice for drivers looking for a complete rear brake replacement on a Mini Cooper, including 2020-2021 Mini Cooper rear brake service and 2022 Mini Cooper rear brake service. Part number 4512-32045 is also listed for 2015 Mini Cooper rear applications, with notes showing certain 2015-2019 vehicles require specific front rotor configurations.

What This Brake Kit Helps Address

• Rear brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Uneven braking feel caused by worn rotor finish or pad wear
• Reduced spring tension or caliper movement from aged hardware
• Longer brake service time caused by uncoated, oil-covered rotors

Installation Notes

• Compatible With 2022 Mini Cooper, rear.
• Compatible With 2020-2021 Mini Cooper, rear.
• Compatible With 2015 Mini Cooper, rear.
• Compatible With 2015-2019 Mini Cooper, rear; notes indicate front rotor configuration differences on some vehicles.
• Compatible With 2015-2019 Mini Cooper, rear; notes also reference dimpled and slotted front rotor configurations on some vehicles.

Before installation, confirm rear axle application and compare the vehicle’s existing brake setup to the fitment notes. The rotors are shipped dry and ready to install, and the coated surface is removed naturally by the pad material during normal braking.

Quality Assurance

DFC machines each rotor to tight tolerances, inspects critical dimensions, and checks vented rotors for balance. The rotors include a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
