Dynamite Friction 4502-45055 Disc Brake Kit - Front

Front Brake Kit for 2009 Pontiac G8

The Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads kit is built for the front axle of the 2009 Pontiac G8 with Brembo front brakes. Part number 4502-45055 combines coated rotors and matched pads in one service kit for a direct brake refresh.

• Fits 2009 Pontiac G8, front, with Brembo front brakes
• Includes DFC GEOSPEC coated brake rotors and DFC 5000 Advanced brake pads
• Rotor coating resists rust and arrives dry for installation
• G3000/G11H18 cast iron rotor construction for OE-style durability and stability
• Non-directional rotor finish supports even pad bed-in and quieter braking
• Post-cured pads with scorched surfaces for stable friction performance
• Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise and vibration control

Product Line Details

DFC GEOSPEC rotors are coated to protect against corrosion while maintaining a clean silver-gray appearance. The rotors are machined to tight tolerances, balanced where required, and inspected for critical dimensions before release. The 5000 Advanced pad line is formulated for consistent friction across a range of vehicle applications, including performance-oriented platforms such as the Pontiac G8.

Detailed Description

Part number 4502-45055 is a front disc brake kit for the 2009 Pontiac G8 with Brembo front brakes and 355mm front rotors. It is also listed for 324mm rear rotor specification in the application notes, so confirm the brake package before ordering. This kit is designed for drivers replacing worn front brake components on the Pontiac G8 who want rotors and pads matched for service work in one package. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Problems This Kit Addresses

• Brake pulsation from worn or uneven front rotors
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Noise from aged pads or degraded shims
• Longer stopping distances caused by worn friction material
• Uneven pad bed-in after rotor replacement

Installation Notes and Tips

Each DFC GEOSPEC rotor is processed dry and ready to install, which reduces prep time during brake service. The non-directional finish supports faster pad bedding, and the coating is removed naturally by the pad during normal braking. Verify Brembo front brake equipment and rotor sizing before installation on the 2009 Pontiac G8. Part number 4502-45055 should be matched to the vehicle’s front brake configuration before service begins.

Quality Assurance

DFC GEOSPEC rotors are manufactured to OE specifications, 100% inspected for critical attributes, and covered by a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. The 5000 Advanced pads are post-cured and scorched to support stable friction performance from the first stop.
