2005-2012 Porsche Boxster (987) / S / Spyder Carbon Ceramic Brake Kit — OEM-Size Replacement
The 2005-2012 Boxster 987 owner usually shops carbon ceramic brakes for one of two reasons: iron rotors are adding heat, dust, and front-end weight during aggressive driving, or factory 350mm PCCB discs need replacement without dealer-level rotor cost. This StopFlex OEM-size kit is built around the correct 987 brake package: 298mm front for Base, 318mm front for S/Spyder iron-brake cars, or 350mm PCCB front and rear where originally equipped. The kit includes carbon-ceramic rotors, matched pads, hats, and floating hardware, with brake pad wear sensor compatibility so the factory Porsche pad-wear warning continues to operate without dashboard errors.
- Fits only the listed 987 Boxster configurations: Base 298mm front/299mm rear, S and Spyder 318mm front/299mm rear, or factory PCCB 350mm front/350mm rear.
- Carbon-ceramic rotors reduce rotating and unsprung mass compared with same-size iron discs, which is most noticeable on the mid-engine 987 through steering response and front-axle compliance.
- Included pads are compatible with the 987 pad-wear sensor system, so the Porsche brake wear warning circuit remains functional after the carbon-ceramic conversion.

| Page type | OEM-size carbon ceramic replacement |
| Minimum wheel size | 16" (for the 299 mm rotor) |
For OEM replacement orders, StopFlex builds around the factory rotor specification shown for this vehicle. Front floating-caliper setups require manual review before production. If the car uses aftermarket calipers such as Brembo, AP Racing, Alcon, or Wilwood, the order can still be built, but the exact caliper model, pad shape, and rotor dimensions must be confirmed before production.
This setup uses a 299 mm rotor, so the minimum wheel size is 16". Wheels under 16" will not clear the caliper and rotor, and spoke profile and offset affect clearance too — confirm your exact wheels before ordering.
Why StopFlex CCB
Lower Unsprung Mass
StopFlex carbon-ceramic rotors are engineered to reduce rotor mass versus comparable iron discs, helping the suspension react cleaner and the steering feel more precise.
High-Temperature Stability
The carbon-silicon-carbide matrix is built for stable braking behavior at temperatures that can push iron rotors into heavy fade.
Rust-Free Rotor Surface
Carbon ceramic does not form orange flash rust after rain, washing, or storage, keeping the visible rotor face cleaner behind open wheels.
Long Street-Service Potential
In normal road use with matched pads and proper bedding, StopFlex CCB rotors are designed for far longer service life than typical iron replacement rotors.
Low Visible Dust
When paired with matched StopFlex pads, the system produces very low visible brake dust compared with conventional iron rotor and pad combinations.
Premium Ceramic-Glaze Appearance
StopFlex's proprietary coating creates a bright, high-end ceramic-glaze finish with subtle glaze texture and a more premium visual character behind open wheels.
Street-Usable Cold Bite
Street Spec and Track-Day Spec rotors are designed for normal first-stop road use, including cold-weather operation. Motorsport Spec is the competition-focused exception.
Continuous Fiber Reinforcement
Long-fiber carbon ceramic construction improves structural strength and thermal durability versus chopped-fiber approaches.
Custom Rotor Hat Color
Every StopFlex OEM replacement order can be built with a custom rotor hat color, giving the carbon ceramic rotor package a cleaner match with the wheel, body color, and overall build style.
Heat Management Note
Carbon ceramic rotors tolerate extreme surface temperature, but they do not remove every heat-management requirement. During repeated hard stops, heat can still soak into pads, fluid, seals, calipers, wheels, and nearby components. For long track sessions, mountain descents, or sustained aggressive driving, brake cooling and high-temperature fluid are still recommended.
Street / Track-Day / Motorsport Rotor Options
Street Spec
Ceramic coating, cross-drilled face, and large cooling channels.
Best for daily driving and premium street builds that need clean cold bite, low dust, corrosion-free appearance, and long service life.
Track-Day Spec
Ceramic coating, blank face, and honeycomb cooling channels.
Best for fast-road and track-day use where repeated braking stability matters more than maximum visual drilling style.
Motorsport Spec
Uncoated blank face with honeycomb cooling channels.
Best for race-focused builds that run competition pads, high-temperature fluid, cooling strategy, and a proper warm-up window. Not the default street choice.

FAQ
Will this fit my 2005-2012 Boxster 987 Base, S, or Spyder?
Fitment depends on the brake package, not just the model badge. This page covers OEM-size replacement for Base cars with 298mm front and 299mm rear rotors, S/Spyder iron-brake cars with 318mm front and 299mm rear rotors, and PCCB cars with 350mm front and 350mm rear rotors.
Do I need to change calipers or wheels?
This is an OEM-size replacement kit, so it is intended to work with the factory caliper and wheel clearance for the matching 987 rotor package. Before ordering, confirm your current rotor diameter and whether the car has the standard iron setup or the 350mm PCCB setup.
Will the Porsche brake pad wear warning still work?
Yes. This Boxster 987 kit uses pads that are compatible with the OEM brake pad wear sensor system, so the factory pad-wear warning remains active and does not require disabling the circuit or accepting a dash warning.
Why choose carbon ceramic instead of replacing the iron rotors again?
Carbon ceramic is chosen when the owner wants lower brake dust, less unsprung and rotating mass, and better thermal stability during repeated high-speed stops. For a 987 used on mountain roads, autocross, or track days, the payoff is more consistent pedal behavior and cleaner open-spoke Porsche wheels.
