What is the main benefit of the EBC Yellowstuff pads included in this kit?

The Yellowstuff pads are designed for high friction, which translates to maximum braking effect and improved stopping power. They are also pre-shimmed and chamfered, and feature EBC's Brake-in coating for faster pad seating.

Are the rotors in this kit direct replacements for the stock Mazda RX-8 rotors?

Yes, the EBC RK series rotors are manufactured to OEM specifications, meaning they are a direct fit for your 2004-2011 Mazda RX-8 without requiring any modifications to the stock setup.

What is the Geomet anti-rust coating on the rotors for?

The Geomet coating is applied to the surface of the rotors to protect them from rust and corrosion during storage and transit. It helps maintain their appearance and prevents premature degradation.

Product Details

If you're looking to give your 2004-2011 Mazda RX-8 a solid brake upgrade, this EBC S13 kit is a well-built option. It bundles together EBC's popular Yellowstuff GG-rated brake pads with their RK series OEM-style replacement rotors, plus a packet of caliper lube. This combination is designed to offer a significant improvement in braking performance over stock, making it a great choice for spirited street driving or if you're rebuilding your front brake system.

The Yellowstuff pads are known for their high friction compound, which means they grab harder and provide more stopping power. They come fully shimmed and chamfered, and feature EBC's patented Brake-in coating to help seat the pads quickly and evenly onto the rotor surface. The included RK rotors are built to OE specifications, ensuring a direct fit without any modifications needed. They're made from G3000 iron and treated with a Geomet anti-rust coating to protect against corrosion, and each rotor is balanced and runout tested for smooth operation.

Buying this kit saves you about 15% compared to purchasing the pads and rotors separately. It's a straightforward way to get a matched set of performance-oriented brake components for your RX-8.
