Paragon's 2-piece rotors bolt a cast iron friction ring to a billet aluminium hat, cutting rotating mass compared to a factory one-piece rotor and insulating heat away from the hub and wheel bearing. It's a direct bolt-on to the factory caliper on most applications, no adapter brackets needed. The PA015 and PA035 are the flagship 6-piston forged monoblock front calipers for cars running larger 355-380mm rotors, while the PA055 4-piston is a lighter, more compact option that suits smaller wheel fitments. The PA025 rear caliper exists specifically to balance a front BBK rather than being an afterthought rear upgrade.

We recommend Paragon to customers who've already maxed out pad compound and are still getting fade or fluid boil on track. Titanium shims are worth mentioning here too: they sit between the pad backing plate and caliper piston and measurably cut heat transfer into the brake fluid, which matters more than people expect on BMW, Porsche and Honda track cars where fluid boil shows up before the pads actually fade.

Most Paragon 2-piece rotors and BBKs are engineered as direct replacements for the factory caliper mount, so no bracket fabrication is needed on the applications we stock. That said, always check rotor diameter against your wheel's inner clearance before ordering, especially on the larger 380mm-plus front kits, since some factory wheel spokes will clash. On WRX/STI applications, Paragon rotors are matched to specific Brembo caliper generations (4-pot vs 6-pot), so confirm which caliper your car actually has before ordering, not just the model year. FK8 and FL5 Civic Type R owners chasing the known OEM rotor grooving issue get a genuine fix here: the friction ring is replaceable on its own, so you're not replacing the whole rotor at service time.

Does a Paragon big brake kit fit my exact model year?
Fitment is caliper-specific, not just model-specific. Check which factory caliper your car has (for example, 4-pot vs 6-pot Brembo on STI) before ordering.

Are 2-piece rotors actually worth it over a standard OEM-style rotor?
For track use, yes: the weight saving and heat management are measurable. For a car that never sees a track day, a good pad compound will usually get you further first.

Do you ship Paragon parts Australia-wide?
Yes, we ship nationally from Australia.

What warranty applies to Paragon products?
Standard manufacturer warranty applies against manufacturing defects. Normal wear items like pads and rotors aren't covered for wear.

Paragon vs Alcon or Brembo, which should I run?
It depends on your calliper clearance, budget and how the car's actually used. Talk to us about your specific car and we'll point you the right way.
