Fitment Notes

These rotors are designed specifically for the front of the Mazda 6 (2006-2007). It's crucial to note that if you're upgrading your front pads, the same upgrade should be applied to the rear for optimal performance. The Thermic Black coating does not require removal before installation, and it will naturally wear off in the pad-swept area after a few stops.
