AR84001XPR
Overview:
The PowerStop Evolution Drilled & Slotted Zinc Plated Rotors are a direct bolt-on upgrade designed to enhance the braking performance of most Tesla Model S and Model X vehicles from 2012 through 2021. These rear rotors improve brake cooling and maintain consistent stopping power under demanding conditions, making them ideal for daily drivers and performance enthusiasts alike. You’ll benefit from reduced brake fade, improved pedal feel, and extended rotor life thanks to their advanced design and corrosion-resistant coating.
Engineered to meet or exceed original equipment specifications, these rotors provide reliable, quiet operation while delivering enhanced heat dissipation and debris removal for a cleaner friction surface. Whether you drive your Tesla aggressively or simply want to maintain optimal braking performance, these rotors offer a practical and effective upgrade.
Key Features:
PowerStop’s Evolution rotors incorporate several technical enhancements to ensure superior braking performance and durability:
- Precision cross-drilled holes maximize cooling by allowing heat to dissipate quickly during heavy braking.
- Rounded, chamfered slots efficiently sweep away gases, brake dust, and moisture to maintain a clean contact patch.
- Silver zinc dichromate plating provides excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, extending rotor lifespan.
- Manufactured to strict tolerances for Disc Thickness Variation (DTV) and runout, ensuring smooth and quiet braking.
- Weight and vane count are matched to original equipment design for consistent brake feel and performance.
- 100% dynamically balanced to reduce vibrations and promote even wear.
- Sold as a pair for complete rear axle replacement.
- Bolt-on installation with direct OE fitment—no modifications required.
Construction & Design:
These rotors are crafted from high-quality materials and feature a zinc plating process that protects against environmental elements, preventing rust and corrosion common in brake components. The cross-drilled holes are chamfered to reduce stress concentrations and minimize the risk of cracking, while the rounded slots are designed to maintain structural integrity and optimize debris removal. The rotors’ vane count and weight are engineered to replicate factory specifications, ensuring compatibility with your Tesla’s braking system and preserving original handling characteristics.
Installation & Fitment:
The PowerStop Evolution Drilled & Slotted Rotors are designed for a straightforward, bolt-on installation using your Tesla’s existing hardware and mounting points. No cutting, drilling, or special tuning is required, making them an easy upgrade for both professional mechanics and knowledgeable DIY enthusiasts. These rotors fit a wide range of Tesla Model S and Model X variants, covering model years 2012 through 2021 for Model S and 2016 through 2021 for Model X.
