Upgrade the braking performance and appearance of your BMW 1 Series with TAROX Rear Performance Brake Rotors, engineered specifically for the BMW E81 and E87 116i models producing 115HP. Manufactured to precise OE specifications and enhanced through TAROX's advanced engineering processes, these premium rear brake discs deliver improved braking consistency, superior durability, and enhanced thermal performance compared to standard replacement rotors.
Each kit includes a complete pair of rear brake rotors, consisting of one left-hand and one right-hand disc, ensuring direct fitment and reliable performance for daily driving, spirited road use, and performance applications.
Rotor Designs Available
• F2000 – Features TAROX's signature long curved groove design that improves pad bite, promotes efficient gas evacuation, enhances brake response, and helps maintain consistent braking performance under demanding conditions.
• Sport Japan – Precision drilled and slotted rotor design engineered to improve cooling efficiency, reduce brake fade, and provide an aggressive motorsport-inspired appearance while maintaining excellent braking consistency.
• Additional rotor designs and performance options may be available for this application. Contact us for further information regarding alternative TAROX rotor configurations.
Why Choose TAROX Brake Rotors?
Every TAROX performance rotor begins with premium TÜV-approved castings manufactured to original equipment specifications. TAROX then applies a series of advanced manufacturing and finishing processes developed through decades of brake engineering experience to create a rotor that delivers superior performance, durability, and reliability.
Precision Heat Treatment Technology
Each rotor undergoes a specialized heat treatment process that optimizes the microstructure of the alloy. This process increases strength, hardness, and thermal stability, helping the rotor withstand repeated heat cycles while maintaining consistent braking characteristics.
Performance Disc Machining
After heat treatment, the rotor receives one of TAROX's performance disc facings. Every groove, slot, and drilled pattern serves a functional purpose, improving heat dissipation, brake pad cleaning, gas evacuation, and overall braking performance.
Unlike cosmetic rotor designs, TAROX rotor patterns are engineered exclusively for measurable performance improvements.
Advanced Anti-Corrosion Protection
To preserve both appearance and durability, every rotor is treated with a high-performance Cataphoresis anti-rust coating. This electronically applied finish protects the non-contact rotor surfaces and internal cooling areas from corrosion and environmental exposure without burning away during use.
Precision Surface Finishing
Both braking surfaces are simultaneously polished using specialized hand-operated machinery to ensure maximum precision. This process guarantees perfectly parallel and exceptionally flat braking surfaces with machining tolerances approaching 0.05 mm.
Benefits of TAROX's precision finishing process include:
• Faster and more effective brake pad bedding-in.
• Improved brake pad contact across the rotor surface.
• Reduced risk of brake disc runout and lateral oscillation.
• Enhanced pedal feel and braking consistency.
• Improved long-term braking performance.
To maintain exceptional manufacturing quality, TAROX recalibrates its finishing equipment every three machining cycles.
