Honda Civic Type R FL5 — Front Replacement Rotor Ring Only For OEM Replacement
Two-Piece Floating Alloy Rotor Ring For OEM Hub | THERMACORE™ Alloy | Track Ready
Engineered as a direct front replacement for the Honda Civic Type R FK8 Facelift / FL5. Built for drivers who take their Type R beyond the commute and into territory where OEM rotors start showing their limits.
Better heat management. Reduced rotating mass. Rebuildable design. This is the front-end upgrade your Type R was engineered to deserve.
Why This Rotor
THERMACORE™ Alloy Friction Ring
Our proprietary THERMACORE™ alloy is engineered specifically for high-performance braking applications — offering significantly greater resistance to heat soak, thermal cracking, and pad fade than conventional cast iron rotors. The front axle absorbs the majority of braking energy, and THERMACORE™ alloy is formulated to handle it, stop after stop, lap after lap.
Two-Piece Floating Construction
A forged aluminium centre hat is paired with the THERMACORE™ alloy friction ring via floating bobbin hardware. This allows the friction ring to expand and contract freely under thermal load — eliminating stress build-up, preventing warping, and killing the pedal pulsation that plagues single-piece OEM discs.
Rebuildable Design
When the friction ring reaches the end of its service life, you don't replace the entire rotor — just the ring. Lower long-term cost of ownership without compromising performance or safety.
Reduced Rotating Mass
Meaningfully lighter than the OEM cast disc, reducing unsprung and rotational weight at the front axle. The result: sharper turn-in, faster acceleration, quicker braking response, and less strain on suspension and drivetrain components.
Choose Your Slot Pattern
Three slot geometries — each with its own character. Pick the one that suits your driving style.
-
J-Hook — Aggressive and track-focused. Maximum pad bite and gas evacuation for drivers who push hard.
-
Curved Slot — Smooth and consistent. Excellent all-round performance with quieter operation for street and light track use.
-
TY — Balanced pattern designed for progressive bite and even pad wear. The all-rounder.
Choose Your Hat Colour
Forged aluminium centre hat finished in hard anodising — a process that penetrates the aluminium surface for a significantly harder, more corrosion-resistant, and longer-lasting finish than standard anodising.
-
Black — Stealth, understated, OEM-plus aesthetic.
-
Bronze — Warm, premium accent that pops through the spokes.
