DBA 08-15 Mitsubishi EVO X Street T2 Slotted Front Brake Rotor
The DBA Street T2 Slotted Front Brake Rotor establishes the direct upgrade for enhanced stopping power in 2008–2015 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X models, featuring bi-symmetrical slotted design with CBN machine-turned friction surfaces that deliver smoother pedal feel, reduced vibration, and consistent performance under repeated braking that outperforms stock rotors or basic slotted alternatives by minimizing fade and improving heat dissipation during autocross or daily spirited driving. Precision-engineered from high-carbon alloyed iron with Kangaroo Paw ventilation, this rotor provides superior thermal capacity and dimensional stability for reliable modulation without the noise or uneven wear of traditional ground finishes, ensuring Evolution X owners experience sharper response and longer pad life compared to OEM blanks that succumb to warping under load. As a direct bolt-on replacement for factory Brembo calipers, it integrates seamlessly with existing hardware, offering enthusiasts a durable foundation that resists cracking and extends service intervals better than piecing together mismatched components from various sources.
