About this part

Product Details

EBC is well-known for making robust brake components, and these GD Sport slotted rotors are a solid choice for your 2003-2010 Audi A8 Quattro. They're designed to help your brakes perform better, especially when you're putting them to work. The wide slots cut into the rotor surface are there to help sweep away heat, dust, and debris, which can make a big difference in preventing brake fade during hard stops or when you're carrying a load.

These rotors are made from OE spec grey cast iron, just like what's used on new cars, and are manufactured in EBC's own foundry in the UK. This means you're getting a well-built part designed for durability. The gold anodized finish on these rotors is not just for looks; it offers protection against corrosion, which is especially helpful for imported vehicles like your Audi. They are vented, meaning they have internal passages to help dissipate heat more effectively.

If you're looking to maintain or improve your braking performance, especially if you do any towing or drive your sedan spiritedly, these rotors are a great option. They are designed to work with FMSI pad number D1018, so make sure you have the correct pads to go with them for optimal performance.
