DIXCEL Front Brake Rotors - Subaru WRX (VA) / Levorg (VM) / Forester (SJ) / Liberty (BL/BP/BM/BR/BN) / Outback / Tribeca - 316x30mm

Upgrade your Subaru's front braking performance with DIXCEL brake rotors, engineered in Japan and developed through decades of OEM supply and motorsport experience. DIXCEL rotors are designed to deliver consistent braking performance, stable pedal feel, and reliable control for daily driving through to more spirited use.

This listing covers the DIXCEL brake rotor types shown for one of the most widely shared front brake fitments across the modern Subaru ecosystem, including the WRX (VA) 2014-2021 non-Brembo variants, Levorg (VM) 2014-2020 in 1.6 GT, 2.0 GT, 2.0 GT-S, and 2.0 STI Sport trims, Forester (SJ) 2012-2018 including 2.0D, 2.0i, 2.0XT, 2.0XT tS, and 2.5i, Liberty (BL/BP/BM/BR/BN) sedan and wagon variants 2003-2020 including GT, GT-B, GT STI, GT Premium, 3.0R, 3.0R-B, and 3.6R variants, Outback (BP/BR/BS) 2003-2020, and the Tribeca (WX) 2006-2013 mid-size SUV. All rotors for this application are 316x30mm vented. Multiple rotor types are available, ranging from street-focused replacements to higher-performance applications. Use the comparison chart on this product page to select the rotor type best suited to your driving style and vehicle configuration.

Rotor Specifications

Important Fitment Notes

  • This rotor fits the standard front caliper / 316x30mm setup. Vehicles fitted with the upgraded STI Brembo hardware (e.g. VA STI, S206, S207) are NOT covered by this listing and require a different rotor.
  • Confirm your vehicle's wheel stud pattern (5x114.3mm), brake configuration, and rotor dimensions before ordering.

Vehicle compatibility, OEM part numbers, rotor specifications, and fitment notes are provided in the tabs above. Please ensure your vehicle's year, trim level, and brake configuration are confirmed before ordering.

FAQ

DIXCEL Brake Pads – Frequently Asked Questions

DIXCEL pads are engineered in Japan to provide improved stopping power, stronger pedal feel, heat resistance and long-term durability. They offer a more controlled braking feel than OEM pads, especially under repeated braking.

  • EC Type: Daily street use – quiet & comfortable.
  • Premium Type: OEM-plus upgrade for comfort & usability.
  • M Type: Ultra-low dust – keeps wheels clean.
  • ES Type: Spirited driving & winding roads.
  • S Type: Street-sports & occasional track.
  • Z Type: Street → supersprints → light circuit.
  • RE / Specom B: Motorsport-only – not suitable for road use.

Most street-compound DIXCEL pads include wear sensors if the vehicle requires them. Some cars do not use sensors at all. If your vehicle normally runs a wear sensor and the pad set does not include one, a replacement sensor can be added separately as an optional extra.

Street-focused pads generally include anti-squeal shims and grease. Motorsport compounds typically do not include shims due to high temperature operation and racing caliper design.

Pad life depends heavily on vehicle weight, brake temperature, pad compound and driving style. Gentle daily commuting will see much longer life than repeated hard braking, spirited driving or track use, which can wear pads significantly faster.

Street compounds are designed to minimise noise. Motorsport pads may squeal when cold or lightly used – this is normal behaviour at race-level temperatures.

Yes — bedding-in is essential for correct friction transfer. Perform several medium-pressure stops to apply material to the rotor, followed by light driving to cool the brakes before heavy use.
