GiroDisc 2012+ Tesla Model S Slotted Rear Rotors
GiroDisc 2012+ Tesla Model S Slotted Rear Rotors form a two-piece set engineered for the rear axle of 2012-2021 Tesla Model S sedans. These direct-replacement rotors use slotted high-carbon iron rings attached to black anodized aluminum hats for reduced weight and improved heat management during hard driving. Drivers gain consistent pedal feel and shorter stopping distances without fade.
Key Features
- Two-Piece Construction: 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum hats with high-carbon ductile iron rings float independently to handle expansion and minimize warping under extreme heat.
- Slotted Design: 48 precision slots per side clear gases, water, and debris while increasing initial bite and reducing brake fade on track or street.
- Weight Savings: Each rotor weighs 22 lbs versus OEM 28 lbs, cutting 12 lbs total unsprung rear mass for sharper handling and acceleration.
- Curved Vane Cooling: Internal 42 curved vanes direct airflow to pull heat from the rotor face at speeds up to 3,000 CFM for sustained performance.
- Patented Retention System: Steel bobbins and stainless hardware secure the ring to the hat with zero play, ensuring balance and quiet operation.

Brake Rotors
Brake rotors work with brake pads to bring your vehicle to a controlled stop. Upgrading from worn or stock rotors to a performance or OE-quality replacement improves braking consistency, reduces fade, and restores the original factory feel. Popular ProductsPopular brake rotor choices include EBC Brakes USR slotted rotors, Brembo OE-replacement rotors, StopTech Sport cross-drilled and slotted rotors, and Centric Premium rotors for OE-quality service replacement. What is the difference between slotted, drilled, and blank rotors?Blank rotors are standard OE-style with no machining, suitable for daily drivers. Slotted rotors have channels cut into the face for debris evacuation and improved high-heat performance. Cross-drilled and slotted rotors combine both features but may crack under extreme track use. How do I know when brake rotors need replacement?Replace rotors when rotor thickness falls below the minimum spec stamped on the rotor hat, when lateral runout exceeds 0.003 inches, or...

GiroDisc
GiroDisc manufactures premium two-piece floating brake rotors designed for performance street and track applications where reduced unsprung weight, superior thermal management, and consistent pedal feel under repeated hard braking are required. The two-piece design separates the cast iron friction ring from the aluminum hat using a patented floater system that allows the rotor to expand thermally without transmitting warping stress to the hub, eliminating the judder and pedal pulsation that single-piece rotors develop after repeated track sessions. GiroDisc rotors are available for a wide range of European and Japanese sports cars including Porsche, BMW M, Ferrari, Lamborghini, and the Subaru WRX, targeting enthusiasts and racers who demand the same engineering quality in their brake hardware as in their suspension and engine components. The significant weight reduction compared to equivalent cast iron rotors improves both acceleration and braking response by reducing the rotational...
