If they are using them on Porsche and M235i racing, that is good enough for us!

BTW, these new V3 rotor rings will not work with the older V2 hats. You will have to buy the complete V3 assemblies. The good thing is that the new V3 assemblies are slightly less expensive than the V2.

Shoot us a PM or email and we will work with you on price.

Other than being a bit lighter and the new hardware, how do these compare to the Stoptech Aero Rotor kit? The Stoptechs are considerably cheaper ($800 shipped from TireRack).

They have them for the E46M3 but you have to use a special pad shape. I have them on my E46M3.

My PFC BBK has V3 front rotors and the design is impressive in its simplicity. Changing a rotor is extremely, extremely fast.
Unfortunately my rear rotors use the V2 design which is the typical BBK with 800 friggin tiny bolts, washers and all this other crap. Fortunately I have not had to swap those in 2 track seasons

For the record, PFC did build a DD rotor application for the rear of an M car: the E46M3.
I used them for multiple seasons and never had to replace the rear rings.

It's a pity they did not build one for the E92M, I would be rocking oem brakes with front and rear PFC DD rotors and be a happy man

Just wondering if PFC ever came out with a V3 rear rotor for the E9x M3?

I still don’t understand why PFC stopped making rotors and brake kits for track enthusiasts. They made some of the best and most durable brake kits on the market. I still have a PFC setup and I stocked up on rotor rings so I can continue to run my kit. However, they still offer a brake kit for Porsche GT cars. Doesn’t make sense. At least they still make phenomenal pad compounds.
