Product Description

The Hawk Performance **HKC5019.180B** Talon Rotor & Brake Pad Kit is a complete rear brake upgrade solution for 2008-2015 Subaru WRX STI models. This kit combines cross-drilled and slotted Talon rotors with matched high-performance HPS 5.0 pads to deliver improved brake cooling, fade resistance, and consistent performance on the street.

The rotor's slots and holes help to minimize heat buildup, clear gas and debris from the pad face, and maintain strong wet braking performance. The corrosion-resistant rotor coating helps preserve rotor life and appearance. The included HPS 5.0 pad is tuned to the rotor geometry and gives an enhanced friction feel over stock, without requiring modification.

This bolt-on kit is intended for rear-axle setup only, making it an ideal functional performance upgrade for drivers seeking better rear braking stability, improved modulation, and refined street performance on compatible Subaru WRX STI models.
