Key Features

The PowerStop Autospecialty brake rotor incorporates several advanced features to enhance your vehicle’s braking system:

• Direct OE replacement design ensures a perfect fit and straightforward installation without modifications.
• Manufactured with Tru-Cast precision machining for consistent, smooth braking performance and reduced vibration.
• Oversized drill holes improve heat dissipation, helping to lower brake temperatures during aggressive driving or heavy braking.
• Counter-sunk holes are engineered to resist stress risers and cracking, extending the rotor’s service life.
• Corrosion-resistant gold zinc plating provides excellent protection against rust and environmental elements, ensuring long-lasting performance and appearance.
• Enhanced wet weather braking capabilities for safer stopping in rainy or humid conditions.

Construction & Design

The PowerStop EBR1404 rotor features a high-quality cast iron construction, designed for durability and effective heat management. The rotor’s Tru-Cast machining process guarantees precise dimensions and a smooth surface finish, which contributes to quieter operation and consistent pad contact. The oversized drill holes are strategically placed to facilitate rapid heat dissipation, reducing brake fade and maintaining braking efficiency during extended use.

The corrosion-resistant gold zinc plating not only enhances the rotor’s aesthetic appeal but also provides a protective barrier against rust and corrosion, especially important for vehicles exposed to harsh weather conditions. The counter-sunk holes are engineered to prevent stress risers, which can lead to cracking over time, thereby increasing the rotor’s lifespan and reliability.

Performance & Sound

Designed to improve your vehicle’s braking response, the PowerStop Autospecialty rotor offers better pad bite and reduced stopping distances compared to standard factory rotors. Its precise machining and heat management features help maintain consistent braking performance, even under demanding conditions. While this rotor is primarily focused on durability and safety, it also contributes to a more confident and responsive driving experience.

Installation & Fitment

The PowerStop EBR1404 is a bolt-on replacement that requires no modifications for installation. It mounts directly to your BMW 228i’s existing hub and braking system, making it a straightforward upgrade for DIY enthusiasts and professional mechanics alike. No special tools or adjustments are necessary, and the rotor’s exact OE fit ensures proper alignment and function. As with all brake components, it is recommended to replace the brake pads simultaneously for optimal performance.
