GiroDisc for Porsche

GiroDisc braking components for Porsche from Design911, focused on high-performance 2-piece brake rotors that can support demanding road and track use where listed for your model.

A Quick Look at GiroDisc

When GiroDisc was founded in 2003, we made it our mission to design and manufacture 2-piece brake rotors that would perform flawlessly at the limits. Our fully-floating design uses tension hardware to ensure that our rotors are silent on the street, but ready to go on the track.By specializing in this area, we can dedicate our efforts to push our engineering and manufacturing to the highest levels in the industry. Porsche customers around the world have found success maximizing the capabilities of their existing brake systems by installing GiroDisc rotors. This often negates the need for a pricier, more complex upgrade like a big brake kit.

Choosing the Right Fit for Your Porsche

Where GiroDisc is listed for Porsche, use the supplied model coverage and OE references to confirm suitability. Check details that commonly affect fitment such as model year, side/position, and connector type where relevant.

• Typical reasons to choose GiroDisc include improving consistency under heat, reducing brake fade and maximising track-day durability where a Porsche is used hard on road or circuit.
• Common brake issues that may prompt an upgrade include fade, cracking on overused rotors, vibration from deposits, uneven pad wear and a long pedal when hot, sometimes made worse by old fluid or sticky calipers.
• Match pad type to disc design and intended use, and combine any rotor upgrade with fresh, high-temperature brake fluid and correct bedding-in for stable performance.
• If you experience vibration, noises or changes in pedal feel on your Porsche, have the complete braking system checked before refitting or upgrading components.

Browse by Category

If you already know the area you are working on, start with the category and then filter by Porsche model. Where real-world symptoms and typical reasons to replace are provided, use them to keep the wording grounded.

Brakes — Brake components are renewed to restore stopping performance, address wear or upgrade a Porsche for fast road or track use. Common symptoms include vibration under braking, increased stopping distances, squealing, pulling to one side, warning lights and visible wear to discs and pads.

• Check whether parts are OE-equivalent or performance upgrades and follow the bedding-in guidance supplied with discs and pads.
• Confirm if fitting kits and wear sensors are required or included for your specific Porsche application.

Performance Friction Brakes — Performance Friction brakes are selected for serious track and racing applications where consistent friction and low taper wear are required; conventional systems may show uneven wear, fade and cracking on demanding circuits.

• Review supported Porsche applications and whether pads and discs are specified as matched systems or as separate components.
• Choose pad compound and follow recommended bedding procedures appropriate to your driving style and usage.

Giro Slotted Brake Disc — Giro slotted discs are chosen where drivers want performance braking, improved pad cleaning and heat management from a distinctive slotted pattern; OE discs may glaze pads and lose bite after repeated heat cycles.

• Confirm Porsche fitments and whether the discs are directional, and follow any advised running-in procedure.
• Check compatibility with original calipers and selected pad compounds for your intended road or track use.

Giro Drilled Brake Disc — Giro drilled discs are typically selected for improved cooling characteristics and a motorsport-inspired appearance compared with standard plain discs, which may run hotter and develop heat spots.

• Verify that drilled discs are compatible with your Porsche’s original calipers and that the design (cast or drilled after casting) suits your intended use.
• Check local regulations and any guidance on pad compound choice and disc direction per side.

Replacement for Ceramic Disc — These discs replace expensive OEM ceramic rotors with alternative solutions when originals are worn or damaged; ceramic discs can chip, crack or reach minimum thickness after hard use, making replacement essential.

• Confirm whether the replacement is ceramic, iron or hybrid, and ensure compatibility with original calipers, pads and vehicle systems where specified.
• Follow the recommended running-in procedure and check any implications for road legality in your region.
