AME Carbon Ceramic Rotor for Audi R8 Gen2 (Carbon Ceramic Replacement)

Upgrade your Audi R8 Gen2 (Carbon Ceramic Replacement) with AME Motorsport carbon ceramic replacement rotors. Engineered as a direct replacement for your factory carbon ceramic rotors, AME rotors deliver OEM-equivalent fit and performance — with the added benefits of enhanced durability, improved heat dissipation, and the choice between SiC-coated (CCB) and uncoated (CCM) friction surfaces.

Choose Your Variant

This product is available in two variants at the same price:

• CCB (SiC Coated) — Silicon carbide ceramic friction coating for maximum durability, oxidation protection, and all-weather consistency.
• CCM (Uncoated) — Pure carbon ceramic composite surface for track-focused weight savings and direct friction contact.

AME Motorsport Carbon Ceramic Performance Rotor (CCB) — SiC Coated

The AME Motorsport CCB rotor represents the pinnacle of carbon ceramic braking technology. Built on the same long-fibre carbon ceramic composite foundation as our CCM series, the CCB adds a proprietary silicon carbide (SiC) ceramic friction coating — delivering the ultimate combination of weight savings, thermal resilience, and long-term durability for the most demanding driving conditions.

What Sets the CCB Apart?

The CCB’s defining feature is its SiC ceramic friction layer (>0.8 mm thick) with over 70% silicon carbide content. This coating provides three critical advantages over uncoated carbon ceramic rotors:

• 5× Greater Wear Resistance — The SiC coating lasts approximately five times longer than uncoated carbon ceramic surfaces, significantly extending rotor life.
• Oxidation Protection to 1,400°C — The ceramic layer shields the internal carbon fibre structure from high-temperature oxidation, preserving structural integrity under extreme heat.
• Uniform & Stable Friction — Delivers consistent friction performance from −30°C cold starts to 1,000°C sustained track braking, with no variation in pedal feel.

Full Carbon Ceramic Advantages

• Up to 60% Lighter Than Cast Iron — Dramatically reduces unsprung weight for improved handling, acceleration, and suspension response.
• Zero Thermal Fade — Tested through 2,000 consecutive braking events at 700°C with stable friction coefficient and zero fade. Average μ of 0.40 under high-load conditions.
• Zero Wet Fade — Full braking performance maintained in all weather conditions.
• Superior Mechanical Strength — Long-fibre reinforcement provides tensile strength of 80–165 MPa and bending strength of 150–230 MPa.
• Enhanced Heat Dissipation — Thermal conductivity of 40–80 W/m/K, with optimised internal vane geometry for approximately 6% faster cooling compared to competing carbon ceramic rotors.
• Corrosion Resistant — Passed 240-hour neutral salt spray testing with zero rust, and dynamic salt spray corrosion testing at speeds up to 200 km/h — suitable for daily driving in all climates.
• 17 MPa Torsional Strength — Zero permanent deformation under maximum test pressure, confirming exceptional structural integrity.

Tested to OEM Standards

Every AME Motorsport CCB rotor is validated through a comprehensive testing programme aligned with leading European sports car manufacturer protocols, including:

• Rotary burst testing (achieved 6,200+ r/min vs. 5,500 r/min requirement)
• High-load fade testing at 725°C (80 cycles at 234 km/h → 100 km/h, 0.8g deceleration)
• 2,000-stop endurance fade testing at 700°C
• Cooling rate benchmarking
• Torsional strength testing at 17 MPa / 1.5g
• 240-hour salt spray corrosion testing (GB/T 10125-1997)
• Dynamic salt spray testing at 120–200 km/h

AME Motorsport Ceramic Composite Material (CCM) Performance Rotor

Engineered for drivers who demand lightweight performance without compromise, the AME Motorsport CCM rotor is built using long-fibre carbon ceramic composite technology. This advanced material delivers significant weight savings over cast iron — reducing unsprung mass for sharper turn-in, faster acceleration, and more responsive braking feel on both street and track.

Why Choose the AME CCM Rotor?

• Up to 60% Lighter Than Cast Iron — Dramatically reduces unsprung weight for improved handling, acceleration, and suspension response.
• Zero Thermal Fade — Maintains a stable friction coefficient of 0.40 even after sustained braking at 700°C, delivering consistent pedal feel lap after lap.
• Zero Wet Fade — Delivers full braking performance in rain and wet conditions with no loss of stopping power.
• Superior Mechanical Strength — Long-fibre reinforcement provides tensile strength of 80–165 MPa and bending strength of 150–230 MPa, far exceeding short-fibre alternatives.
• Enhanced Heat Dissipation — Thermal conductivity of 40–80 W/m/K enables faster cooling between braking events, reducing operating temperatures and extending component life.
• Corrosion Resistant — Passed 240-hour salt spray testing (GB/T 10125-1997) with zero red rust, making it ideal for daily-driven vehicles in all climates.
• Extended Service Life — Carbon ceramic composite material lasts significantly longer than conventional cast iron rotors, reducing long-term ownership costs.

Tested to OEM Standards

Every AME Motorsport CCM rotor undergoes rigorous performance validation including burst testing (exceeding 5,500 r/min), high-load fade testing, cooling rate analysis, torsional strength testing, and salt spray corrosion testing — all performed to the same protocols used by leading European sports car manufacturers. Our rotors have demonstrated burst speeds exceeding 6,200 r/min, well above the minimum safety threshold.
