Mazda Motorsports has recently discounted Centric brake rotors in two varieties: C-Tek and Premium. These Centric brake rotors for Miatas complement the factory rotors, which are also available at racer discount pricing. The C-Tek are good for standard applications, while the Premium are well suited to endurance racing.
“We wanted to provide racers options in brake rotors,” says Josh Smith, Mazda Motorsports’ development specialist. “Most racing classes, including Spec Miata, allow for substituting wear items, including brake rotors and pads, for alternates meeting the same size specifications. With the aggressive brake compounds being used these days, rotors are a definite wear item.”
The C-Tek rotors are designed to provide value and include non-directional finishes, double disc-ground, machined non-friction surfaces, and G3000 metallurgy. The double disc grinding is designed to ensure parallelism, eliminate run-out and provide near-perfect disc thickness variation.
The Premium brake rotors are also double disc ground and have a non-directional finish on the friction surface, but they also use an electrocoating that provides extra corrosion protection, designed to withstand 400 hours of salt water exposure without rusting. The vane design is similar to the Mazda OE factory rotor. The Premium rotors are only available for NA and NB Miatas.
