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

The wide slots on these EBC rotors help to clear away brake dust and debris from the pad surface. They also allow air to pass through, which helps to keep the rotors cooler during heavy braking, reducing the chance of brake fade.

Are these rotors made in the USA?

Many EBC rotors, including a majority of designs specific to the USA market, are British-made in their own UK foundry. When rotors are sourced from elsewhere to complete their range, they are rigorously specified, sampled, and tested for material integrity.

What brake pads are recommended for these rotors?

These EBC GD Sport Slotted Rotors are designed for use with FMSI Pad Number D780. It's always a good idea to check the manufacturer's recommendations for optimal performance and compatibility.

About this part

Product Details

What you get here are a pair of EBC's 3GD Series Sport Slotted Front Rotors, designed to replace your stock vented rotors. These are built from OE spec grey cast iron, with many of them being made right in the UK. The wide slots cut into the rotor surface are there to help clear out dust and debris, and also allow air to flow more freely, which helps keep the brakes cooler under load. This can make a notable difference in reducing brake fade, especially when you're driving harder or carrying extra weight.

These rotors are anodized for protection, coming in black for domestic applications and gold for imports. The slotted design is beneficial for a variety of vehicles, from sedans to SUVs and trucks, making them a solid option for everyday driving and towing. They are designed to work with FMSI D780 brake pads and feature a 256mm diameter with 4 bolt holes.
