What is the main benefit of the slots on these EBC rotors?

The wide slots on these EBC GD Sport rotors are designed to help your brakes run cooler by allowing air to circulate more freely. They also help to sweep away dirt, dust, and debris from the braking surface, which can improve stopping performance and reduce brake fade.

Are these rotors made in the USA?

These EBC rotors are British-made in EBC's own UK foundry. EBC specifies that while they strive to manufacture as many rotors as possible in-house, they occasionally source parts from approved overseas suppliers to complete their product ranges.

What is the difference between the gold and black anodized finishes?

The gold anodized finish is typically used for import vehicles like your Mazda RX-8 and offers protection. The black anodized finish is generally used for domestic vehicles. Both finishes provide protection against corrosion.

About this part

Product Details

The wide slots on these EBC GD Sport rotors are designed to help your Mazda RX-8's rear brakes run cooler, especially when you're putting them to work. They also help sweep away dirt, dust, and debris from the braking surface, which means more consistent stopping power. These rotors are made from OE spec grey cast iron, the same material used on new cars, and are British-made in EBC's own foundry.

The GD Sport rotors feature a unique slot pattern that helps reduce brake fade under load and at speed, making them a solid option for spirited driving or towing. For import vehicles like your RX-8, these rotors come with a gold anodized finish for added protection. They are vented, meaning they have internal vanes to help dissipate heat, and are designed as a direct replacement for your stock rear rotors.
