2002 Kia Optima Rear Brake Rotors

Carquest Platinum painted brake rotors meet or exceed original equipment (O.E.) specifications, delivering superior stopping power with proper harmonic design and non-directional finish that eliminate noise. Carquest Platinum painted rotors feature RotorShield, a rust-inhibiting barrier that provides up to 5 times more protection than non-painted rotors. The RotorShield barrier is applied to the rotor hat to protect from unsightly rust and help maintain a like-new appearance. Our rotors are designed to effectively dissipate heat, helping to eliminate brake fade and increase the life of the pads and rotors. Carquest Platinum painted brake rotors are designed for long-lasting and quiet braking with superior performance.

Product Features:

• Engineered to withstand 120 hours of salt spray testing
• Meets or exceeds OE design for superior stopping power
• Exceeds ISO manufacturing guidelines (International Organization for Standardization)
• Matches OE vane size for proper cooling
• Optimal metallurgy and casting thickness to preventing warping
• Air gap eliminates brake fade and increases pad life
• Non-directional finish decreases break-in time

Carquest Wearever rotors meet or exceed original equipment specifications while delivering superior stopping power. Carquest Wearever rotors are manufactured with proper harmonic design and non-directional finish that eliminate noise and enhance pedal feel. Our rotors are designed to effectively dissipate heat, helping to eliminate brake fade and increase the life of your pads and rotors. Carquest Wearever rotors are designed for long-lasting and quiet braking with superior performance.

Product Features:

• Meets or exceeds OE design for superior stopping power
• Exceeds ISO manufacturing guidelines (International Organization for Standardization)
• Matches OE vane size for proper cooling
• Optimal metallurgy and casting thickness to preventing warping
• Air gap eliminates brake fade and increases pad life
• Non-directional finish decreases break-in time

Carquest Platinum Plus coated rotors are built to meet or exceed original equipment specifications delivering superior stopping power. Carquest Platinum Plus coated rotors have a specially engineered coating that penetrates vanes and prevents rust, corrosion and build up. This zinc and aluminum coating maintains a like-new appearance significantly longer than a standard rotor. Carquest Platinum Plus coated rotors are designed to effectively dissipate heat helping to eliminate brake fade and increase the life of your pads and rotors. These rotors are built for quiet, long-lasting performance.Tech Tip: Burnish the pads to the rotor by applying the 30/30/30 rule: 30 stops from 30 mph with 30 seconds of cool down between stops.

Product Features:

• Engineered to withstand 120 hours of salt spray testing
• Zinc and aluminum anti-corrosion coating maintains a like-new appearance
• Manufactured to exacting quality and dimensional specifications for superior stopping power
• Exceeds ISO manufacturing guidelines (International Organization for Standardization)
• OE configuration to dissipate heat, increasing pad life
• Proper harmonic design helps to reduce brake noise
• Non-directional finish for decreased break-in time and reduced brake noise
• Brand may vary by location

WBR Run True Technology Metallurgic-Gray (MG) Finished Rotors All World Brake Resources (WBR) brake rotors with Run-True technology are manufactured to match the exact OE fit, OE construction, and precision finishing to ensure quick and easy installation, as well as trouble-free functionality for the life of the rotor. The Metallurgic-Gray coating is applied to all outward non-friction surfaces including in the gap between the plates covering the cooling vanes and cured through an oven drying process. The Gray coating provides an effective anti-rust protection to help maintain a clean appearance. The coating used for WBR is also similar to the OE color used by many OE car makes. WBR Brake Rotors with Run-True Technology have ultra tight tolerances that provide the finest braking experience, from break in throughout the life of the rotor, reducing the chance of warping even under extreme braking temperatures. The coated brake disc provides a protective water based coating that prevents rust and corrosion, extended rotor life and improved visual appearance. WBR Brake Rotors are manufactured to meet or exceed the original equipment manufacturer specification for durability, fit, and function.

Product Features:

• High metallurgical and machining standard to improve stopping distances
• Produced to match OE design fitment – G 3000 gray iron
• Mill balanced
