Girodisc 2-Piece Front Rotors for Volkswagen Golf R MK7 (2013-2020) - Lightweight Design - A1-171

Upgrade Your Volkswagen Golf R with Girodisc A1-171 Rotors

If you own a Volkswagen Golf R (2013-2020), you know that performance is key. The Girodisc A1-171 rotors offer a straightforward upgrade that enhances your braking system without the complications of a big brake kit. This system is designed as a direct replacement for your factory discs, meaning you won’t need to modify your vehicle. Simply bolt them on, and enjoy the benefits of improved performance.

Performance Benefits

One of the standout features of the Girodisc rotors is their lightweight design. Weighing in at approximately 20.3 lbs compared to the stock units at 23.8 lbs, these rotors reduce both rotational and unsprung weight. This translates to quicker acceleration and better suspension response, allowing you to tackle corners with confidence.

Construction and Design

The central hat section of the A1-171 rotor is crafted from high-quality, U.S.-sourced 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum. The disc itself is made from Girodisc's proprietary cast iron, poured and machined in-house in the USA. The innovative curved vane design acts like a centrifugal pump, effectively channeling cooling air through the rotor to maintain optimal temperatures during intense driving sessions.

Floating Mount System

The A1-171 features a floating mount system that utilizes 10 high-strength alloy steel drive pins. These pins, also manufactured in the USA, are cadmium plated for corrosion resistance and are designed to handle the loads from braking while allowing for axial and radial float between the hat and disc. This design not only enhances performance but also minimizes noise, thanks to anti-noise spring washers that prevent rattling during cold conditions.

Fitment

  • Volkswagen Golf R MK7 (2013-2020)

Notes

  • Once installed, simply replace the cast iron rotor when needed.
  • Sold in pairs for your convenience.

Customer Feedback

Golf R owners have expressed satisfaction with the Girodisc A1-171 rotors. One owner noted, “After installing these rotors, my braking feels more responsive, and I noticed less fade during spirited drives. The fit was perfect, and they look great behind my wheels!”

Upgrade your Golf R's braking system with the Girodisc A1-171 rotors and experience the difference in performance and handling. Your ride deserves it!
