What material are these EBC brake rotors made from?

These EBC RK Series rotors are made from G3000 grey iron. This material is chosen for its balance of strength and thermal properties, suitable for everyday braking.

What is the purpose of the Thermic coating on these rotors?

The Thermic coating serves two main purposes: it provides a clean, finished look and, more importantly, offers corrosion resistance. This helps prevent rust buildup on the rotor surface, especially in harsh weather conditions.

Do these rotors come with new hardware or brake pads?

This listing is for the EBC RK Series front brake rotors only. Brake pads and any necessary installation hardware are sold separately, so be sure to check compatibility for FMSI pad number D1371.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to replace the front brake rotors on your 2008-2013 BMW 135i or 2013 135is, these EBC RK Series rotors are a solid option. They're built to the same specifications as the original equipment, using G3000 grey iron for reliable performance. The riveted disc design is a classic approach that helps manage thermal expansion, keeping the rotor true under braking stress.

What sets these rotors apart is the Thermic coating applied to the entire surface. This isn't just for looks; it provides a notable level of corrosion resistance, meaning they'll look good and perform well for longer, especially in areas where road salt is common. They are vented rotors, which is crucial for dissipating heat generated during braking, helping to prevent brake fade on your 135i. The dimensions are specific: 338mm in diameter, 73mm in height, 26mm thick, with a 79mm center bore and 5 bolt holes, ensuring a direct fit for the intended application.

These rotors are designed to work with FMSI pad number D1371, so make sure you have the correct brake pads to go with them for optimal performance. Replacing your rotors is a key part of maintaining your BMW's braking system, and these EBC rotors offer a well-built, direct-replacement solution.
