Honda Civic Type R FD2 (Rear) Performance 2-Piece Rotor and Brake Pad Package

Paragon 2-Piece Rear Rotors + Winmax Pads for Honda Civic Type R FD2 Cooked pads and heat soaked rotors usually show up together after a hard track session — this package upgrades both at once so you're not placing a second order two weeks after the first one shows up. This package pairs Paragon's 2-piece floating rear rotors with a Winmax compound matched to how you actually drive the car. Built for the HPDE, autocross, and grip-meet crowd running Honda Civic Type R FD2 on stock or built power, where repeated hard stops matter more than curb weight. Choose your rotor hat finish, then pick the pad compound that matches how hard you're actually driving it. Already have pads you're happy with? Select "No Pads" and just get the rotors. Rotor Hat Finish: Black Hard Anodized or MilSpec Hard Anodized Pad Compound: No Pads, P2 Street, or P3 Sport CM-250 high-carbon alloy cast iron rotor rings, heat-treated and CBN-machined, with runout held within 0.03mm and balance within 2 grams 2-piece floating rotor design reduces unsprung weight and resists warping under repeated heavy braking Bundle pricing saves you a second shipping charge vs. ordering rotors and pads separately Frequently Asked Questions What's included in this Honda Civic Type R FD2 rear package? You get a matched pair of Paragon 2-piece rear rotors (left and right) with your choice of hat finish, plus a matched set of rear brake pads in the compound you select at checkout, or choose "No Pads" if you already have pads you're happy with and just want the rotors. Ordering rotors and pads together in one package also saves a second shipping charge versus ordering them separately. What are the Honda Civic Type R FD2 2-piece rotors made of, and how are they different from OE? The rotor ring is CM-250 high-carbon alloy cast iron, heat-treated to release casting stress and CBN-machined for a finish that breaks in cleanly with new pads. Lateral runout is held within 0.03mm and rotor weight is balanced within 2 grams, which keeps vibration out of the pedal. The 2-piece floating design lets the rotor ring expand with heat independently of the hat, which resists the warping and cracking that stock one-piece rotors are prone to under sustained hard use. Slotting keeps the pad/rotor interface clean of gas and debris and sheds water films better than a blank rotor in the wet. Will this fit my Honda Civic Type R FD2 without modification, and does it work with the factory ABS and calipers? Yes: it's a direct bolt-on for the applications listed, designed to work with the factory ABS and brake system while maintaining factory brake bias, no modifications required. The rotors are also compatible with OEM pads or aftermarket pads sharing the same pad depth if you decide to change compounds down the road. Which pad compound should I choose for my Honda Civic Type R FD2? This Honda Civic Type R FD2 package offers 2 compound options at checkout, each suited to a different level of use: P2 (Street/Comfort): a non-metallic, street-focused compound with low dust and noise, a broad effective range up to 932°F, and a friction coefficient of roughly 0.29–0.32. It's the right call for a daily-driven car where comfort and pad life matter as much as bite. P3 (Sport): an all-around semi-metallic compound for spirited street driving, autocross, and occasional track days, effective to 1112°F with a friction coefficient near 0.34–0.37. It's the sweet spot for a car that sees both commute duty and the occasional lapping day. As a rule of thumb: go street-only with P2, split the difference with P3, and step up to R5 or R7 only if you're running repeated track or competition sessions, since race compounds give up daily-driving manners for outright bite. Which hat finish should I pick? Both options use the same CNC-machined 6061-T6 aerospace-grade aluminum hat and perform and hold up identically; Black Hard Coat and MilSpec Type III Hard Anodized are cosmetically different finishes, not different levels of durability. Pick whichever look you prefer. Do new rotors and pads need to be bedded in on my Honda Civic Type R FD2? Yes, as with any new rotor and pad set. A proper bedding cycle (a series of moderate stops from speed without coming to a complete halt, followed by a cool-down period without riding the brakes) transfers an even layer of pad material onto the rotor face and helps prevent uneven deposits, judder, or noise later on. Always follow the specific bedding procedure included with your chosen pad compound. Do I need to order the front kit too, or does rear-only make sense? Plenty of owners run rear-only, especially if the front brakes are newer or seeing less heat. That said, rotors and pads wear as a system, and if you're planning track days, matching both ends to a similar compound keeps braking balance more predictable as everything heats up together. If a matching Front package is available for the Honda Civic Type R FD2, it's worth checking out alongside this one. Is this a good option for autocross and HPDE, or only full track? It covers both ends. P3 is the go-to for autocross and occasional HPDE days where you still want street manners the rest of the week. R5 and R7 are for drivers doing repeated HPDE sessions or wheel-to-wheel competition and want a compound that won't fade as the day heats up. Most HPDE and autocross regulars land on P3 or R5 depending on how many sessions they're running back to back.
