In this review of the TRQ Rear Brake Rotors Set for 2003-2008 Hyundai Tiburon, the bottom line is simple: these rotors are a direct-fit, no-frills replacement aimed at drivers who want reliable braking performance and straightforward installation without paying OEM prices. The reviewer found them to be well-suited for routine driving and brake jobs where exact OE matching and smooth operation matter most. Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable swapping rear rotors, and the set delivers the expected stopping feel for daily use.
Key Features
- Direct Fit: The set is made as an OE replacement so it mounts without modification for the 2003-08 Tiburon rear driver and passenger sides.
- Complete Pair: Kit includes one rear driver side and one rear passenger side rotor, which simplifies ordering and ensures matched thickness across an axle.
- Solid Construction: Cast iron solid rotors deliver consistent braking feel and heat capacity for normal street driving.
- Concrete Dimensions: Precise measurements such as 258 mm outside diameter and 45 mm overall height help confirm fitment before purchase.
- Aftermarket Reference: Listed reference 980086 helps match the part with vehicle-specific fitment information in the listing.
Who It's For
The TRQ rear rotors are best for Tiburon owners doing routine maintenance who want a direct-fit, affordable OE-style replacement that restores factory braking feel. They suit DIY mechanics and independent shops replacing both sides at once to maintain even wear and consistent stopping power.
Drivers who need enhanced rust protection, slotted or drilled performance rotors, or rotors for heavy towing and track use should look elsewhere, because these are conventional solid cast iron rotors without rust-resistant coating or ABS tone ring features.
Pros & Cons
Pros

- Easy to install as a direct fit set for the rear driver and passenger sides.
