EBC 79-85 Buick Riviera (Fwd) 3.8 Turbo Ultimax2 Rear Brake Pads

If you're looking for a straightforward, quality replacement for your rear brake pads, the EBC Ultimax2 series is a solid option. These pads are designed to be a direct fit for a wide range of vehicles, including models like the 1979-1985 Buick Riviera, 1978-1987 Buick Regal, and 1979-1985 Cadillac Eldorado, among many others. They aim to provide the performance you expect from original equipment without the higher cost.

The Ultimax compound uses a blend of fibers, including a small percentage of steel, to achieve its balance of performance and affordability. This composition helps them last well for daily driving and produce minimal dust, keeping your wheels cleaner. They are also designed to be gentle on your rotors, reducing wear over time. EBC has kept this compound consistent for years, a testament to its popularity and effectiveness for everyday use.

These pads are ECE R 90 approved, meaning they meet European safety standards and are considered totally equivalent to original parts in terms of braking performance. While they are a great value, remember that proper installation is key to brake safety. If you're not a qualified mechanic, consider having a professional install them, or use resources like the EBC installation DVD as a guide alongside your vehicle's owner's manual.
