Volkswagen GTI Brake Rotor (1) - Front - DBA - 5000 Series HD - 2015–2021 is a direct replacement front rotor designed for GTI owners who want a durable, performance-oriented upgrade. This DBA 5000 Series HD rotor pairs a high-carbon cast-iron friction ring with an aerospace-grade aluminum hat for improved heat management and reduced unsprung weight.

The 5000 Series HD is a composite two-piece design using T6061-T6 aluminum hats, NAS-standard bolts and crimp nuts, and high-carbon cast-iron rings. The HD variant provides a smooth, OE-style rotor finish for drivers who prefer a plain face without slots, cross-drills, or dimples, while retaining the thermal and weight benefits of the 5000 Series. These rotors are suitable for high-performance street use, track day, club racing and rally applications, and DBA offers options for complete assemblies or replacement rings and hats if you already have 5000 Series components.
