The Story
Rear Brake Kit for Cadillac XTS
DFC Friction part number 4512-46108 is a rear disc brake kit built for 2013-2019 Cadillac XTS models with 6 lug wheels, including coachbuilder-limo applications. It combines GEOSPEC coated rotors, 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads, and matching brake hardware in one service kit for a complete rear brake refresh.
For Cadillac XTS rear brake service, this kit is designed to deliver OE-style fitment, corrosion resistance, and consistent pedal response. The coated rotor finish helps resist rust, while the pad and hardware package is engineered for quieter operation and stable braking performance.
Key Features
- Fits 2013-2019 Cadillac XTS, rear
- Part number 4512-46108
- GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pad surface to reduce initial break-in time
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved NVH control
- Non-directional rotor finish for smoother pad bed-in
- Hardware kit uses PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel
Product Line Details
DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors are processed dry and ready to install, which eliminates the need to clean oil-coated rotors before service. The rotors are cast to G3000/G11H18 specifications, machined to tight tolerances, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions. The 5000 Advanced brake pads are formulated for stable friction performance and are assembled with shims that help reduce noise, vibration, and harshness. Together, these components make 4512-46108 a practical rear brake kit for Cadillac XTS brake replacement work.
Common Brake Service Issues
- Rear brake noise, squeal, or vibration
- Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
- Uneven pad wear or reduced braking consistency
- Longer stopping distances from worn rear components
- Corroded or fatigued brake hardware
Installation Notes and Tips
Fits 2013-2019 Cadillac XTS, rear, with 6 lug wheels and coachbuilder-limo notes as listed. Verify rotor size, wheel configuration, and rear axle application before installation. The dry rotor coating is removed naturally by the brake pads during normal use, and the non-directional finish supports even pad bedding after service.
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 4512-46108 is built as a complete rear brake service solution for Cadillac XTS applications.
