Ghost Rotors Drilled Slotted Rotors — High-Performance Brake Kit

Ghost Rotors Drilled Slotted Rotors Performance Brake Kits are built to deliver maximum stopping power, fade resistance, and long-term durability. Engineered for daily driving, high-performance vehicles, trucks, and SUVs — including heavy-duty towing and off-road use — this complete kit ensures consistent braking under normal, heavy, or aggressive driving conditions.

Truck & Tow Performance — Built for Heavy-Duty Use

Ghost Rotors Drilled Slotted Rotors are engineered to handle the added demands of trucks, SUVs, and towing. When you're hauling a trailer, boat, or heavy load, your brakes work significantly harder — heat builds faster, pedal feel degrades, and OEM rotors fade, warp, and wear out quickly. Ghost Rotors are built for this. G11H18 high-carbon iron absorbs and dissipates heat faster than standard rotors, maintaining consistent brake feel even under sustained heavy braking. Whether you're towing at highway speeds, descending steep grades with a full load, or running a work truck day in and day out, Ghost Rotors deliver reliable, fade-resistant stopping power every time.

G11H18 High-Carbon Steel Rotors — Superior Metal Standards

Ghost Rotors are precision-cast from G11H18 high-carbon gray iron — an automotive-grade metal specification that exceeds standard G25 iron in every performance category. Higher carbon content produces a finer graphite matrix, delivering superior hardness (220–260 HB), better heat absorption, reduced brake noise, and significantly longer rotor life. G11H18 is the choice of performance engineers and OEM+ manufacturers who demand more from their brake components. The result: rotors that resist cracking, warping, and wear far longer than standard replacements.

Drilled Slotted Rotors — Diamond Slots & Cross Drilled Design

Ghost Rotors feature our signature diamond slot pattern combined with cross-drilled holes for maximum cooling, pad bite, and fade resistance. The diamond slots channel heat, gas, and brake dust away from the pad surface, maintaining consistent friction and extending pad life. Cross-drilled holes provide additional airflow paths, reducing rotor temperatures and preventing the hot spots that cause warping and brake fade. Each slot and hole is precision-engineered to maintain structural integrity while maximizing performance under all conditions.

Eco-Friendly GEOMET® Anti-Corrosion Coating

Ghost Rotors feature GEOMET® coating, a premium environmentally friendly corrosion protection system that outperforms traditional zinc plating. Protects against rust, corrosion, and environmental damage while keeping your rotors clean and long-lasting.

Premium Carbon Ceramic Brake Pads — Low Dust, High Performance, Maximum Longevity

Ghost Rotors include advanced Carbon Ceramic Brake Pads engineered for maximum braking performance under all conditions.

• Low Dust Formula: Keeps wheels cleaner and reduces maintenance.
• High-Temperature Fade Resistance: Maintains consistent stopping power even under aggressive driving and track conditions.
• Maximum Friction Formula: Optimized for immediate bite, smooth modulation, and stable braking performance.
• Durable, Long-Lasting Compound: Designed to outlast OEM pads while reducing noise and vibration. Compare in our Carbon Ceramic vs Semi-Metallic guide.
• Mechanically Attached Shims: Ensure noise-free operation and precision fit with your calipers.

These pads deliver quiet, consistent, and reliable braking, making them ideal for both daily drivers and high-performance vehicles.

Precision OEM Fitment & Easy Installation

Rotors are machined to meet or exceed OEM specifications for direct bolt-on replacement with factory calipers. No modifications required. Balanced and precision-cut for smooth, consistent performance. See OEM vs Ghost Rotors for a full comparison.

Heat Management & Longevity

Heat is the primary cause of rotor warping and brake fade. Ghost Rotors' drilled slotted design — combined with G11H18 high-carbon iron and GEOMET® coating — ensures long-term cooling, fade resistance, and rotor integrity under all driving conditions.

Lifetime Warranty Protection

Ghost Rotors are backed by a Lifetime Warranty against manufacturing defects, giving you confidence in long-term reliability and performance.
