Are these rotors noisy?

The Ultimax slotted design is specifically engineered to minimize air noise that is often associated with slotted rotors. This means you should experience quiet brake operation while still benefiting from the cooling and cleaning effects of the slots.

What is the main benefit of the slotted design?

The primary benefits of the slots are improved brake cooling and dust clearing. The angled slots help pull in cooler air to reduce heat buildup, and they also sweep away brake dust and debris from the pad surface, helping to maintain consistent grip and potentially extend pad life.

Do these rotors come with hardware?

This product listing is for the brake rotors only. Installation hardware, such as lug nuts or brake pad hardware kits, is typically sold separately. Please refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for a complete list of required components.

Product Details

EBC is known for making well-built brake components, and their Ultimax slotted rotors are a popular choice for drivers looking for an upgrade over standard OE parts. This particular set, the RK1772, is designed for the rear of a variety of Audi and Volkswagen vehicles, including models like the Audi A3, Volkswagen Beetle, and Volkswagen Jetta. They are solid rotors, meaning they don't have internal vanes like some performance discs, but they still offer notable benefits for everyday driving.

What sets these rotors apart is the Ultimax slotting pattern. Unlike some aggressive slots that can create extra noise, EBC's progressively angled slots are designed to pull in cooler air, which helps keep your brakes from overheating during normal use. This improved cooling means more consistent braking performance. The slots also serve a practical purpose by helping to sweep away brake dust and debris from the pad surface. This not only helps maintain maximum pad grip but can also extend the life of your brake pads by preventing excessive buildup.

With a diameter of 272mm and a thickness of 10mm, these rotors are made to fit directly onto vehicles that use FMSI pad number D1779. They are a solid option for anyone looking to improve their braking system's ability to handle heat and keep clean, all while maintaining quiet operation.
