- Aluminum hat construction helps reduce heat transfer from the friction ring to the hub
- Serviceable design allows the DBA center hats to be reused with replacement friction rings
- T3 slots help move brake-pad dust and friction gases away from the contact surface
- High-carbon iron rings support consistent performance through repeated heat cycles
- Kangaroo Paw ventilation promotes airflow through the rotor
- Black anodized center hats provide corrosion resistance and a clean appearance behind the wheels
What to Expect
The DBA 5000 Series T3 is a factory-size two-piece rotor upgrade rather than a big-brake conversion. These rotors retain the original C8 Corvette Stingray Z51 rear calipers, brake-pad dimensions, mounting points, and 350 mm rear rotor size while replacing the conventional one-piece design with separate iron friction rings and aluminum center hats.
Each DBA53929BLKS arrives as a complete assembled rotor. The center hats and rotor assembly hardware are already included, so the original Corvette rotor hats do not need to be transferred during the initial installation.
When the iron friction rings eventually reach their minimum thickness, the DBA aluminum hats can be retained and serviced with DBA53929.1S replacement rings.

Installation Overview
The DBA53929BLKS rotors install in the factory C8 Corvette Stingray Z51 rear rotor locations and work with the original J55 rear calipers and mounting points. Each rotor arrives assembled with the aluminum hat, iron friction ring, and rotor assembly hardware.
Install both rear rotors during the same brake service. Clean the hub and rotor mating surfaces, inspect the brake pads and caliper hardware, verify rotor runout, and follow the DBA and brake-pad manufacturer bedding procedures after installation.
