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

The wide slots on these EBC GD Sport rotors are designed to help sweep away dirt, dust, and debris from the braking surface. This helps maintain consistent contact between the pad and rotor, reducing brake fade and improving stopping performance.

Are these rotors made in the USA?

EBC manufactures many of their rotors, including a majority of designs for the US market, in their own UK foundry using OE-spec grey cast iron. While they occasionally source parts from approved overseas suppliers to complete their range, the focus is on British manufacturing for their own-tooled designs.

What else might I need to install these front rotors?

When replacing your brake rotors, it's often recommended to also replace your brake pads. You may also need new hardware, such as caliper bolts or retaining clips, depending on their condition. Always refer to your vehicle's service manual or consult a professional mechanic for specific installation requirements.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to improve your Lexus GS350's braking performance, especially under spirited driving or towing conditions, these EBC GD Sport slotted rotors are a solid option. They're designed to fit the front of your 2009-2011 GS350, including RWD models, and are built to work with the D1118 FMSI pad number. These rotors are vented, meaning they have internal vanes to help dissipate heat, which is crucial for consistent stopping power.

EBC makes these rotors from OE-spec grey cast iron, the same material used in new car production. Many of EBC's rotors, including a majority of designs for the US market, are British-made in their own foundry. The 'GD' in the name stands for 'G-Hook' and 'Double Groove', referring to the slot pattern. These wide slots are specifically designed to help sweep away dirt, dust, and debris from the braking surface. This action not only keeps the pads cleaner but also helps reduce brake fade, especially when the brakes are working hard. For imported vehicles like your Lexus, these rotors feature a gold anodized finish for added protection against corrosion.

This set includes the front rotors, which measure 334mm in diameter and are 30mm thick. They have 5 bolt holes and a 62.1mm center hole diameter. While these rotors are designed for improved performance, they are still made to OE specifications for a direct fit, meaning installation should be straightforward, similar to replacing your stock rotors. Just remember to consult your vehicle's service manual or a professional mechanic for the correct installation procedure and any associated hardware you might need.
