The Story
Rear Brake Kit for Select GM Vehicles
The Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads - Ceramic and Hardware kit is a rear disc brake service kit built for OE-style fitment and consistent braking performance. Part number 4512-65051 combines coated rotors, ceramic pads, and matching hardware for select Chevrolet, Buick, and Cadillac applications.
Fits 2017-2020 Chevrolet Impala, rear. Fits 2013-2019 Cadillac XTS, rear. Fits 2011-2017 Buick Regal, rear. Fits 2010-2016 Buick LaCrosse, rear. Fits 2014-2016 Chevrolet Impala, rear. Fits 2013-2015 Chevrolet Malibu, rear. Fits 2010 Buick Allure, rear.
Key Features
- DFC GEOSPEC coated rear rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads for stable friction performance
- Post-cured pads with scorched surfaces to reduce initial break-in time
- Rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise, vibration, and harshness control
- Non-directional rotor finish for smoother pad bedding and quieter stops
- Hardware kit designed to OE form, fit, and function
- Part number 4512-65051 for rear brake service applications
Product Details
DFC builds this brake kit around OE-matched rotor casting specifications and precision machining for consistent fit and stable operation. The coated rotors are processed dry and ready to install, which helps reduce prep time during a rear brake job on vehicles such as the Chevrolet Impala, Buick Regal, and Cadillac XTS. The ceramic pad formulation is paired with premium shims to support quieter operation and more even braking feel. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Common Brake Issues This Kit Can Address
- Rear brake noise during stops
- Rust buildup on rotor surfaces
- Uneven pad wear from fatigued hardware
- Reduced braking smoothness or pedal consistency
- Longer service time caused by unprepared rotors
Installation Notes
Verify rear fitment by year, make, model, and position before installation. Clean the hub mounting surface, inspect calipers and slides, and follow proper bedding procedures after installation. The coated rotor surface is designed to be swept away by the brake pads during normal use.
Quality Assurance
DFC states that each rotor is inspected for critical dimensions and balance, with vented rotors electronically mill-balanced when required. The rotors carry a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
