The Story
Brake Kit for BMW 320i, 323Ci, 323i, 328i
The DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads and hardware kit is a front and rear disc brake kit built for select BMW applications. Part number 4514-31008 combines coated rotors, low metallic pads, and brake hardware in one service package for a complete brake refresh.
Key Features
- Complete disc brake kit for front and rear service
- DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- 5000 Advanced low metallic brake pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pads for reduced break-in time and more immediate stopping response
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise, vibration, and harshness control
- Hardware kit uses PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel construction
- Rotors are machined to OE-style tolerances with a non-directional finish
- Part number 4514-31008
Product Details
DFC designed this brake service kit for drivers who want a direct brake replacement package with matched components. The GEOSPEC rotors are processed dry and ready to install, which helps reduce prep time during brake service. Their coated surface helps resist rust, while the cast iron construction and precision machining support stable braking performance and even pad bedding. The 5000 Advanced pads use a low metallic friction formula selected for consistent stopping behavior across everyday driving conditions.
This kit is a strong match for BMW 320i, BMW 323Ci, BMW 323i, and BMW 328i brake service needs when you want rotors, pads, and hardware from one source. Part number 4514-31008 is listed for front and rear positions on the covered vehicles.
Common Brake Issues This Kit Addresses
- Brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
- Noise caused by fatigued or corroded hardware
- Reduced stopping performance from worn pads
- Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
- Uneven pad wear from aged brake hardware
Installation Notes
Before installation, inspect calipers, hoses, and wheel bearings for wear that could affect brake performance. Clean the hub mounting surface thoroughly so the new rotors seat flat, and follow proper bedding procedures after installation to help the pads and rotors mate evenly. This kit is listed for front and rear service on the specified BMW applications, so verify axle position before ordering.
Quality Assurance
DFC states that the rotors are manufactured to OE specifications, inspected for critical dimensions, and balanced where required. The brake pads are post-cured and scorched for stable friction performance, and the hardware kit is engineered to OE-style form, fit, and function. Rotors include a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
