Description
Upgrade the braking performance of your BMW 135i Convertible (E88) with TAROX Front Performance Brake Rotors, engineered to deliver exceptional stopping power, improved pedal feel, superior heat management, and outstanding durability. Manufactured from premium TUV-approved castings and enhanced through TAROX's proprietary heat-treatment process, these performance brake rotors are designed for enthusiasts who demand confidence-inspiring braking performance on the street, fast road, and track.
Each set includes two front brake rotors (one left and one right rotor) and is designed as a direct replacement for the factory braking system.
Available TAROX Rotor Designs
Choose from TAROX's most popular performance rotor patterns, each designed to enhance braking performance and cooling efficiency.
F2000 Rotor Design
The F2000 rotor features TAROX's signature long curved groove pattern, developed to continuously clean the brake pad surface and optimize braking performance.
Benefits include:
• Improved initial brake bite
• Enhanced brake pad deglazing
• Better heat dissipation
• Improved wet-weather braking performance
• Increased resistance to brake fade
• Enhanced pedal feel and braking consistency
Sport Japan Rotor Design
The Sport Japan rotor combines precision-drilled holes with performance slots for maximum cooling and braking efficiency.
Benefits include:
• Increased cooling performance
• Enhanced heat evacuation
• Improved braking response
• Excellent track-day capability
• Motorsport-inspired appearance
• Consistent braking under demanding conditions
Additional rotor styles may be available depending on application. Please contact us for further information.
Premium TUV-Approved Construction
Every TAROX brake rotor starts with a high-quality OE-specification casting that is fully TUV approved for quality and safety.
TAROX then enhances the rotor through an advanced heat-treatment process that improves the internal structure of the material.
Benefits include:
• Increased rotor strength
• Improved material hardness
• Better thermal stability
• Greater resistance to cracking
• Enhanced durability under repeated heavy braking
This process has been refined through decades of performance brake engineering and motorsport development.
Advanced Heat-Treatment Technology
Precision heat treatment helps unify the microstructure of the rotor material, creating a stronger and more durable braking component.
Advantages include:
• Reduced thermal stress
• Improved braking consistency
• Better resistance to heat-related distortion
• Enhanced rotor lifespan
• Increased performance under demanding driving conditions
Cataphoresis Anti-Corrosion Protection
Following machining, each rotor receives a premium Cataphoresis anti-corrosion coating designed to protect exposed rotor surfaces throughout the life of the brake disc.
Benefits include:
• Long-lasting corrosion protection
• Protection of unswept rotor surfaces
• Protection of internal cooling vanes
• Improved long-term appearance
• Resistance to harsh environmental conditions
Unlike temporary coatings, the Cataphoresis treatment provides durable protection without burning away during normal operation.
Precision Hand-Finished Braking Surfaces
Each TAROX rotor is finished using specialized hand-operated machinery that simultaneously polishes both braking surfaces to ensure maximum precision.
Benefits include:
• Exceptionally flat braking surfaces
• Perfectly parallel rotor faces
• Faster and more effective brake pad bedding
• Improved braking consistency
• Reduced risk of rotor runout
• Minimized brake vibration
TAROX rotors are machined to tolerances approaching 0.05 mm for exceptional quality and performance.
