SHW Performance

Does your European sports car need brake rotors that are lighter, cool better and look sharper behind the wheels? SHW Performance makes performance brake rotors for Porsche, BMW, Audi and Mercedes-Benz, among others. Here you’ll find two-piece lightweight rotors and monobloc rotors with drilling, slots or dimples.

Brake rotors for European performance cars

SHW Performance specialises in brake rotors for European performance and luxury cars. Instead of offering a broad range of every kind of brake part, the brand focuses on the rotor, the part that has to absorb and shed heat when you brake hard. The rotors are made as direct replacements for the originals, so you can upgrade without changing calipers, and they are used both on everyday cars with a sporty profile and on cars that see track time.

SHW Performance’s key products

The two-piece lightweight rotors have a cast iron friction ring joined to a light centre section with a pin-drive system. This saves unsprung weight and lets the friction ring expand freely as it heats up. For many cars there are also one-piece monobloc rotors. Both types come in several versions: cross-drilled, slotted and dimpled, which help carry gas and water away from the pad. See each product for the models and brake sizes it fits.

Frequently asked questions

What is the benefit of a two-piece brake rotor?

A two-piece rotor is lighter than a comparable one-piece rotor, which reduces unsprung weight. The friction ring can also move more freely at high temperatures, reducing the risk of the rotor warping.

Should I choose drilled or slotted rotors?

Drilled rotors are popular for street use and give a sporty look. Slotted rotors keep the pad surface clean and usually cope better with repeated hard braking. For the track, many choose slotted rotors.
