Product Details

The DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads line is built for drivers who want a matched rotor-and-pad service kit with OE-style fitment and finish. For BMW 330Ci, BMW 330i, and BMW 330xi rear brake service, this kit brings together coated rotors that resist rust better than conventional painted or zinc-coated options and pads formulated for consistent friction from the first stop. The rotor machining process uses tight tolerances, balance inspection on vented rotors, and a final inspection of critical dimensions to support reliable rear brake performance.

This part number 4502-31168 is a practical choice for rear brake maintenance when you need a complete service kit for 2001-2006 BMW 330Ci rear brake replacement, 2001-2005 BMW 330i rear brake replacement, or 2001-2005 BMW 330xi rear brake replacement. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Issues This Kit Can Address

• Rear brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
• Brake noise caused by aged pads or rotor surface wear
• Reduced stopping consistency from heat-worn friction material
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Extended service time when sourcing pads and rotors separately

Installation Notes

Fits 2001-2006 BMW 330Ci, rear; Fits 2001-2005 BMW 330i, rear; Fits 2001-2005 BMW 330xi, rear. Confirm rear axle configuration before ordering, since the fitment notes include both full cast disc brake rotors and aluminum hat front rotor notes in the catalog data. The rotors are shipped dry and ready to install, which helps reduce prep time during brake service. Follow standard brake bedding procedures after installation for consistent pad transfer and pedal feel.

Quality Assurance

DFC states that each rotor is inspected for critical dimensions and that vented rotors are balance-checked and corrected when needed. The rotors carry a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. The brake pads are post-cured, scorched, and assembled with premium shims to support stable friction characteristics and improved NVH control.
