2006-2012 Porsche Cayman (987) / S / R Carbon Ceramic Brake Kit
Official Warranty: 1‑year free replacement for quality defects or coating issues under normal (non-track) use.
2006-2012 Porsche Cayman (987) / S / R Carbon Ceramic Brake Kit — OEM-Size Replacement
The 2006-2012 Cayman 987 rewards brake weight reduction because the chassis is mid-engine and steering feedback changes when front unsprung mass changes. This OEM-size StopFlex kit replaces the factory rotor package with carbon-ceramic rotors, matched pads, hats, and floating hardware for the exact 298 mm Base, 318 mm S/R iron, or 350 mm PCCB configurations listed on this page. It is built for owners trying to cut brake dust on open Porsche wheels, add heat margin for repeated mountain or track braking, or replace worn PCCB rotors without changing the factory brake layout.
- Base 987 Cayman fitment is limited to the 298 mm front rotor and 299 mm rear rotor setup listed for this page.
- Cayman S and Cayman R fitment is limited to the 318 mm front iron-brake setup or the 350 mm PCCB setup, with the matching 299 mm or 350 mm rear rotor configuration listed here.
- The included pads support the 987 Cayman OEM pad-wear sensor circuit, so the factory pad-wear warning remains functional without dashboard errors.
Fitment Hard Lines
| Field | Specification |
|---|---|
| Vehicle | Porsche Cayman (987) / S / R |
| Model years | 2006-2012 |
| Front rotor reference | Base: 298mm; S/R: 318mm, 350mm (PCCB) |
| Rear rotor reference | Base/S/R: 299mm, 350mm (PCCB) |
| 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 kit fit every 2006-2012 Porsche Cayman 987?
No. This page is only for the listed 987 Cayman, Cayman S, and Cayman R brake configurations: Base 298 mm front with 299 mm rear, S/R 318 mm front with 299 mm rear, or PCCB 350 mm front and rear. Confirm your trim, current rotor diameter, and caliper package before ordering.
Do I need to change calipers to install this OEM replacement kit?
This is an OEM-size replacement package, so it is selected around the factory rotor diameter and matching caliper setup already on the car. The kit includes carbon-ceramic rotors, pads, hats, and floating hardware; it is not a big-brake conversion.
Will the Porsche pad-wear warning still work?
Yes. The pad setup is compatible with the 987 Cayman factory brake pad wear-sensor system, so the original warning function remains active and does not create a dashboard error when installed correctly.
Why choose carbon-ceramic instead of another iron rotor set for a 987 Cayman?
Carbon-ceramic rotors reduce brake dust, resist heat-related fade better under repeated high-energy stops, and remove rotating unsprung mass compared with iron rotors. On a 987 Cayman, that matters for steering feel, wheel cleanliness, and track-day consistency while keeping the factory rotor size.
