If you're looking to upgrade your BMW's braking system without going overboard, the Girodisc rotors are a solid choice. These aren’t just any rotors; they’re designed as a direct swap for your factory discs, meaning no complicated modifications are needed. Just bolt them on, and you're good to go. They'll work seamlessly with your OE calipers, keeping that factory bias and ABS efficiency intact. It's a smart way to enhance your ride without losing the feel you love.
What sets these rotors apart is their construction. The central hat section is crafted from U.S.-sourced 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, which not only keeps them lightweight but also ensures they can handle the heat. The disc itself is made from Girodisc's proprietary cast iron, poured right here in the USA. Each rotor is machined in-house, so you know you’re getting quality craftsmanship. Plus, the curved vane design is a clever touch borrowed from racing—it's engineered to act like a centrifugal pump, pushing cooling air through the disc to keep everything nice and cool under pressure.
Another standout feature is the floating mount system. It uses 10 high-strength alloy steel drive pins, which are made to Girodisc's specifications and are cadmium plated for corrosion resistance. These pins bear the load during braking while allowing for axial and radial float between the hat and disc. This design helps the rotor self-center between the pads. And to keep things quiet when you first hit the brakes, they’ve included anti-noise spring washers on the rotor side. This means you can enjoy the performance benefits without the annoying rattles that can come with floating rotors.
Once you’ve got the Girodisc system installed, replacing the cast iron rotor down the line is a breeze. No need to fuss with complicated setups—just swap it out when it's time.
Fitment:
- BMW F8X M2 | M3 | M4 2015-2020
Notes:
- This application is specifically for M2, M3 & M4 models equipped with blue calipers and iron rotors.
So, if you're driving a BMW M2 (2015-2021), M3 (2015-2019), or M4 (2015-2020), these Girodisc front rotors are a great upgrade that balances performance and practicality
