Does anyone know why you can't buy aftermarket rotors and pads for the 991.2 Carrera? I have searched
high and low - only thing I've found is OEM parts.

Advice and knowledge appreciated

 

Hawk and Posiquiet have OEM replacements pads.
Girodisc or Racing Brake 2 and AP/Essex make 2 piece rotors kits.

 

EBC Red stuff would be my pick for the pads. They do make pads for OEM 991.2 and good bite for street use and low dust. I didn't use for my 991.2 GTS yet but had great experience with them before.
you can get the part #s from here:

High and low?! Where did you search, in your garage?!

If you search this forum you will find what you are looking for, and here is an active thread and there are many more: https://rennlist.com/forums/991/1175...-991-pics.html

 

As noted by ShaunP (thank you), Essex supplies a host of brake upgrade components from AP Racing, Ferodo, and Spiegler. You can see details in this thread:

So I am looking for stock brake replacement parts. EBC site has fronts but no rear pads, Hawk doesnt make the fronts....

I can't find any aftermarket stock rotors. No Zimmermann, Brembo, Meyle, Adams Rotors, nothing, nada....

EBC's front rotor replacement was discontinued....

Thanks for the replies.

 

Your search skills are lacking.

I have a set of Hawk Performance Ceramics in my office right now ready to go on. They make 4 or 5 different compounds that work on the 991.

 

I use powerstop z16 pads for my 991.2 base brakes-low dust and good stopping power. For aftermarket rotors your current options are girodisk and the essex kits above.

@JRitt@essex do your 350mm rotors for the 991 s work on the base 991 t with the 4 piston calipers up front? Also curious of the weight of the rotors compared to stock.

 

sebro seems to make them. they are oe suppliers. i put them on my 958 cayenne s, have zero complaints or issues. i couldnt tell any difference in performance from oem to these

Have you tried rockauto.com ?

 

Yes sir. We now have a disc option that works with the base 991 T 4 piston setup, and the matching rears.

Weights
Front OEM 330x34mm = 22 lbs.
Essex/AP Racing 350x34mm J Hook= 22 lbs.

Rear OEM 330x28mm = 20 lbs.
Essex/AP Racing 350x28mm = 18 lbs.

Here are some pics we took when the 991 Carrera T was in for test fit:

Here's a disc from our Road Brake Kit next to OEM:

 

nice-these utilize spacers for the OEM caliper, correct?

 

That is correct. Billet aluminum spacers for the OEM calipers are included with the discs. Thanks!

 

Thanks. When I am in the market for rotors it’s either this or the girodisk setup (unless there is a carbon ceramic option that is affordable at that time). Honestly not sure which is best but I will do more research when ready.
