What is the benefit of the slotted design on these EBC rotors?

The wide slots on these EBC rotors help to clear out dirt, dust, and brake pad material from the braking surface. This action also helps to vent heat and gases, which can reduce brake fade and keep your brakes performing more consistently, especially during harder use.

Are these rotors made in the USA?

EBC manufactures many of their rotors, including these, in their own foundry in the UK. They use OE spec grey cast iron and emphasize their British manufacturing for a well-built product.

What else might I need to install these rear rotors?

When replacing your rear rotors, it's a good time to inspect and likely replace your rear brake pads as well, using the FMSI Pad No. D1060. You may also want to have brake cleaner on hand to clean the hub surface and new hardware if your old hardware is corroded.

About this part

Product Details

You're looking at a set of EBC 3GD Series Sport Slotted Rear Rotors, designed specifically for your Mini Cooper. These aren't just any rotors; they feature wide slots that help clear out dirt, dust, and debris from the braking surface. This slotting design also helps the brakes run cooler, which is a big help in reducing brake fade, especially when you're putting them to work under load or at higher speeds. They're made from OE spec grey cast iron, the same material used in new car production, and are anodized for protection. For imports like your Mini, they come with a gold anodizing.

EBC manufactures these rotors in their own UK foundry, ensuring a well-built product. The slotting pattern is engineered to help remove heat and gases from the braking zone, leading to more consistent stopping power. These solid rotors measure 259mm in diameter and are a direct replacement for your stock rear rotors, fitting right into place with their 4 bolt holes and 64.1mm center hole diameter.
