In this review of the TRQ rear brake rotors set the bottom line is simple: these are straightforward, direct-fit replacement rotors for owners of compatible Hyundai Sonata and Kia Optima models who want an affordable OEM-style swap. The kit includes one rear driver side and one rear passenger side solid rotor and is presented as an OE replacement with the aftermarket reference 980054. Installers will appreciate that the parts are vehicle specific and sized to match stock mounting points, making these rotors a practical choice for routine rear brake service.
Key Features
- Direct Fit: Fits the specified 1999-2006 Sonata and Optima rear hubs without modification for a quick, trouble-free replacement.
- OE Replacement: Sold as an OE replacement disc brake rotor set, so it matches original dimensions for predictable braking performance.
- Complete Rear Set: Kit includes both rear driver and passenger side rotors so both sides can be serviced at once for balanced stopping power.
- Clear Fitment Info: Vehicle specific compatibility is listed, helping buyers confirm fitment for their exact model and production date before purchase.
- Standard Dimensions: Uses common mounting bolt pattern and nominal thickness values for compatibility with stock calipers and hubs.
Who It's For
These rotors are aimed at DIY mechanics and independent shops maintaining late 1990s to mid 2000s Hyundai Sonata and early mid-2000s Kia Optima models that require rear rotor replacement. They suit owners seeking an economical, OE-dimension replacement rather than a high-performance upgrade.
Customers who need enhanced corrosion resistance, slotted or drilled designs, or rotors for heavy performance or towing use should look elsewhere, but for standard daily drivers these rotors provide the expected fit and function for routine brake jobs.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Good fit and ease of installation, matching stock mounting points for a hassle-free swap.
- Provides smooth braking and consistent performance as an OE-style replacement.
- Value for money when replacing both rear rotors at once, since the kit includes driver and passenger sides.
Cons
- Coating finish is mixed in customer reports, and some units show rapid surface rusting shortly after installation.
