Product Details

If you're looking to give your 2004-2011 Mazda RX-8 a serious brake upgrade, this EBC S12 kit is a solid choice. It bundles everything you need to replace your front pads and rotors, making it a straightforward way to improve stopping power and reduce brake dust. This kit is especially well-suited for drivers who enjoy spirited driving or have modified their RX-8 and want brakes that can keep up.

The heart of this kit is EBC's Redstuff brake pads, which are built with an Aramid fiber composite enhanced with ceramic granules. This blend is designed to offer strong braking performance across a wide range of speeds while producing significantly less dust than many other performance pads. They come fully shimmed, slotted, and chamfered, and feature EBC's patented Brake-in coating to help them seat quickly after installation, ensuring you get great braking power right away with no fade. The included RK series rotors are direct-fit OEM replacements, meaning they'll bolt right up without any modifications. They feature a Geomet anti-rust surface coating to protect against corrosion and are balanced and runout tested for smooth, consistent braking.

This kit is a convenient way to get a matched set of high-performance pads and rotors. You'll save about 15% compared to buying the parts separately. Just remember to refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for proper pad seating and break-in procedures.
