How do the slots on these rotors help my brakes?

The angled slots on these EBC rotors help in two main ways. They pull in cooler air to help reduce brake temperature, and they also help to sweep away brake dust and debris from the pad surface. This combination helps maintain consistent braking performance and can increase the longevity of your brake pads.

Are these rotors noisy like other slotted rotors?

EBC designed the Ultimax slotted rotors to offer the performance benefits of slots without the excessive air noise often associated with them. The specific angle of the slots is intended to reduce noise while still providing effective cooling and dust clearing.

What are the main dimensions of these rear rotors?

These rear brake rotors have a diameter of 280mm, a height of 46mm, and a thickness of 22mm. They also feature a 68mm center hole diameter and 5 bolt holes for mounting.

About this part

Product Details

If you're working on the rear brakes of your 2001-2003 Audi S8, these EBC Ultimax slotted rotors are a solid option. They're designed to give you the benefits of slotted rotors without the extra noise you sometimes get. The angled slots pull in cooler air, which helps your brakes run at their best, especially during harder stops. These slots also do a good job of clearing out brake dust and debris. This helps your brake pads maintain maximum grip and can even extend their life.

These are vented rotors, meaning they have internal passages to help dissipate heat. They have a 280mm diameter and are designed to fit directly onto your S8's rear hubs. The slotted pattern is specifically engineered to be quieter than many other slotted designs, so you get improved performance without sacrificing comfort.
