Construction & Design

The GD Sport rotors are built with a focus on durability and performance. The wide aperture slots are carefully engineered to maximize airflow around the rotor surface, effectively reducing operating temperatures and preventing brake fade. The dimple drilling pattern not only adds to the aesthetic appeal but also plays a crucial role in stress relief, preventing cracks that can develop under thermal cycling.

The black e-coating finish provides an attractive, low-maintenance surface that resists corrosion from road salts and environmental exposure. The rotors are precision-machined to ensure a perfect fit with your Jaguar X-Type's existing calipers and mounting points, making installation straightforward and hassle-free. Their robust construction ensures they can withstand the rigors of daily use while maintaining consistent performance over time.
