Product Description

The DBA 52218BLKS 5000 Series T3 Slotted Front Brake Rotor with Black Hat is a premium performance upgrade engineered specifically for the front braking systems of 2003-2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 8 and Evolution 9 models. This advanced two-piece rotor combines a precision T3 tri-symmetrical slotted surface with a black anodized aluminum hat to reduce unsprung weight and improve heat dissipation, resulting in more consistent braking performance under spirited street use and demanding driving conditions.

Constructed with high-carbon alloyed iron rings and enhanced using Thermal Stability Profiling (TSP), the DBA52218BLKS resists heat-induced warping and delivers stable performance during repeated heavy braking cycles. The Kangaroo Paw ventilation design increases cooling efficiency to further reduce fade and extend component life. Designed as a direct bolt-on replacement for compatible Evo 8 and Evo 9 front brake applications, this rotor is sold individually - install in pairs for a complete front axle upgrade with balanced braking performance.
