The Story
Rear Brake Kit for Subaru Forester
DFC Friction part number 4512-13072 is a rear disc brake kit for 2014-2018 Subaru Forester models. It combines GEOSPEC coated rotors, 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads, and matching hardware components in one service package for a cleaner, OE-style brake repair.
- Fits 2014-2018 Subaru Forester, rear
- DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pads for reduced break-in time and initial stopping response
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise and vibration control
- Non-directional rotor finish for even pad bed-in and smoother braking
- Part number 4512-13072 for rear brake service on Subaru Forester applications
Product Line Details
The DFC GEOSPEC rotor line is designed for dry installation and uses a coated surface that helps resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc finishes. The 5000 Advanced pad line is formulated for stable friction performance, with post-curing and scorching used to support consistent braking from the first stop. Together, these components are built for drivers servicing a Subaru Forester rear brake system who want OE-style fit and predictable pedal feel.
Common Brake Service Issues
- Rear brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware
- Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
- Uneven pad wear or inconsistent braking feel
- Longer stopping distances caused by worn friction components
- Vibration or harshness during rear brake application
Installation Notes and Tips
These rotors are shipped dry and ready to install, which helps reduce prep time during a rear brake job. For best results, clean the hub mounting surface before installation and follow proper brake bedding procedures after service. Confirm rear-position application before ordering for your 2014-2018 Subaru Forester.
Quality Assurance
DFC machines the rotors to tight tolerances, applies a non-directional finish, and inspects critical dimensions to support OE-spec fit and function. Vented rotors are balance-checked, and the rotors include a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. Part number 4512-13072 is built for rear brake service on Subaru Forester models from 2014 through 2018.
